She passed a further exam in 2012. Norah has been privileged to be taught and corrected(!) by excellent teachers locally and also many visiting teachers. In 2014 she attended the Iyengar Yoga (UK) Convention which was led by Abhijata Iyengar which was a great privilege. In June 2015 she attended the Iyengar Yoga (UK) Convention led by Bijoo which was a totally different but equally enthralling experience.
2016 took Norah to the Iyengar Yoga (UK) Convention led by Raya which was also very different and very dynamic but equally thoughtful and provoking. Iyengar Yoga has inspired Norah through the experience of developing harmony of body and mind through the various yoga poses. "Words cannot convey the value of yoga - it has to be experienced." BKS Iyengar
