London
Yasodhara Yoga teachers offer workshops and other day events in a variety of London locations, including the East End, at the quiet and beautiful oasis of St Saviour’s Priory near Haggerston Park and the Hackney City Farm; in Shoreditch, near St Matthew’s Church; and in central Enfield.
In addition, we are always happy to receive invitations from Yoga groups and centres anywhere in London. Depending on our availability, we can offer tailor made workshop programmes. These can be especially helpful for extending the opportunities available to continuing students and for teachers’ conferences and professional development days. They often focus on deepening the practice of Yoga asanas, or on exploring aspects of Kundalini Yoga, or more specific topics such as yoga and healing, cultivating compassion, conscious aging, the Divine Feminine, or Karma Yoga/the Bhagavad Gita and selfless service.
