In October this year, my little studio was awarded a recognition as one of the top three studios in the Westshore. Given that I am the only teacher here (my competitors have 30 yoga instructors at their studios), it is testimony of the quality of yoga we offer in Iyengar Yoga.
I am grateful to all my students current and past who nominated Metchosin Yoga

Thank you to all of you who took the time to nominate the studio. I am humbled and moved by your appreciation and loyalty.

One of the most frustrating statement I hear as a yoga teacher is that "yoga is as good as any other form of exercise". While exercising is undoubtedly a worthwhile way to spend one's time, the above statement is incorrect.
