The Yoga Wall Shack

Description

The yoga taught at the Sheepdrove Yoga Wall Shack is based on school of The Yogic Path founded by Mira Mehta in 1999. Its approach to Yoga emphasises physical practice rooted in philosophy and follows the Iyengar Method. 

The Yoga Wall Shack is a light and airy studio purpose built from Cedar wood (renewable and biodegradable and sourced from sustainably managed forests). Set in a peaceful spot in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the rolling Lambourn Downs with stunning views to contemplate. It is equipped with mats, blankets and other Yoga props and a Great Yoga Wall. Underfloor heating for those chillier months and staggering downland views to meditate upon. It holds a maximum of 8 people. 

Classes and individual sessions are available and paid for in blocks of 4 although you may join a class at any time subject to availability and health. Please e mail to check availability.

Credentials

My classes, like yoga, are for everyone! To be enjoyed and relished - there is a lot of laughter as well as quiet, restorative down time.. 

I have spent over 25 years practising yoga with amazing teachers. I spent 5 years training with Mira Meta to become a certified yoga teacher. Mira Mehta has written numerous books including the Iyengar Way. 

My teaching follows the Iyengar method, which is known worldwide for its safe, progressive instruction in a wide range of postures and breath control techniques. Based on detailed, accurate knowledge, the method is also known for its efficacy in treating health problems through Yoga.

Formal Training:
332 hour Certificate in Yoga Teaching from Mira Mehta (author of the Iyengar Way) at the Yogic Path School and an Associate Teacher of the Yoga Alliance Professionals
Yoga Wall Teacher Training Certificates 1 and 2 from Martin Zillbauer at the Great Yoga Wall
First Class Certificate in Study of Bhagavad-gita and
Frist Class Certificate in Philosophy of Yoga
Both from the Hindu Studies and Comparative Religion, University of Oxford

I am currently enrolled on a 3 year Masters Course in Traditions of Yoga and Meditation at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London and also a Yoga Therapy Diploma Course with Yoga Campus in London.
