Norah Phipps Iyengar Yoga

Norah Phipps Iyengar Yoga Iyengar Yoga Classes in Hexham area. Norah has been teaching Iyengar Yoga in the Hexham area since 2006 after qualifying as a teacher.

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 exp

erience.

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

We learn through a carefully graded and systematic programme of postures. Yoga practice both relaxes and energizes the body and mind and brings vitality, flexibility, strength, concentration, self-confidence and mental calm. Yoga is suitable for all types of people and all levels of fitness. It is physically challenging to the level we can each work. Practicing Yoga helps you overcome and prevent many stresses, strains, aches and pains. It promotes a firm foundation for health and well-being. If you haven't already given it a try please do at:

Yoga is on this week after the Easter Bank Holiday. My right upper arm still painful- so everyone at the classes will need to work hard while I watch😂.

Sarvangasana (shoulder balance) on a higher raise. The higher raise allows the trunk to lift vertically.

International Women’s Day

Today we celebrate the women who have shaped, guided and sustained the living tradition of Iyengar Yoga.

We remember with deep gratitude Geeta Iyengar, whose dedication and profound understanding of the practice transformed the way yoga is taught and experienced around the world. Her work continues to inspire generations of teachers and students.

We also honour Abhijata Iyengar, who carries the teachings forward with insight, strength and compassion, sharing the depth of the method with students across the global Iyengar Yoga community.

On this International Women’s Day, we celebrate the strength, intelligence and resilience of women in yoga. Teachers, students, organisers and practitioners who nurture and sustain our community every day.

With gratitude from the Iyengar Yoga UK community.
