Artworks: Mr and Mrs Angadi - available on BBC Radio Four

Mr and Mrs Angadi ran The Asian Music Circle, a cultural organisation, from their suburban family home. It was in their living room that BKS Iyengar gave the very first public Iyengar Yoga class in the UK.

The Angadi"s home has a rich and vibrant history having welcomed many musical talents over the years. World renowned violinist Yehudi Menuhin served as president of The Asian Music Circle for a time and Indian classical musicians were booked for recording sessions with artists such as Peter Sellers and The Beatles.

This is the story of a couple, a family, and a home that altered the evolution of British culture.

~About Yoga Ropes
Yoga ropes use gravity as a natural source of resistance to help the body open up and release. Rope work eases joint tension and delivers a thorough stretch to the whole musculoskeletal system, increasing blood flow to nourish organs and tissues.

A perfect start to the new year!
