Iyengar Yoga New Zealand
Welcome to IYNZ – the home of Iyengar yoga in New Zealand. Our members are Iyengar yoga teachers and practitioners based around the country. We are passionate about practising, protecting and promoting the teachings of B.K.S Iyengar and his family. Our yoga teachers and students are mentored by senior teachers here and Prashant and Abhijahta Iyengar, who continue to live out the Iyengar yoga legacy at the Ramamami Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute (RIMYI) in Pune, India.
We are honoured to carry on one of the strongest yoga lineages in the world today. We practice and teach Iyengar yoga because, from our own experience, we know how powerful it is for transforming the body, mind and soul.
Find an Iyengar yoga class
We’re here to encourage more people around Aotearoa New Zealand to practice Iyengar yoga and to answer any questions you may have. We’d love to hear from you and hope to see you on the mat soon!
Yoga is for all of us. To limit yoga to national or cultural boundaries is the denial of universal consciousness
