Transform your life through the transformative power of Iyengar Yoga
We are Lydia Holmes and Edgar Stringer, a married couple living and working in North Wiltshire. We have been practicing Iyengar Yoga since 1991 and teaching since 1997. Both of us are qualified Level 3 Senior teachers, mentors, and assessors for IYUK, and we continue to train under the guidance of pupils of BKS Iyengar. Our passion for Iyengar Yoga has led us to open our own studio, Yogatree, in September 2020.
At Yogatree, we offer a range of classes catering to different levels of experience and ability. From beginners to improvers, intermediate, and teacher's levels, we provide a supportive and welcoming environment for all. Our classes include specialist sessions such as pregnancy yoga, 1-1 private sessions, and yoga therapy. We believe that yoga is a journey, and we strive to create a sense of community among our students.
As qualified teachers, we have had the privilege of training with some of the most renowned Iyengar Yoga teachers and have had the opportunity to study at the Iyengar Institute in Pune, India. Our qualified and experienced teachers have a deep understanding of the Iyengar Yoga method and are committed to providing a high-quality teaching experience for our students.
