Jane Holstead
Jane qualified as a teacher with the Iyengar Institute in London and has taught in England , including at the Iyengar Institute, and on the Costa del Sol before moving to this area.
Iyengar is a style of Hatha Yoga. Hatha Yoga is the form of yoga normally learnt by students in the western world, based on a series of postures.  This style focuses on the correction of faults in the body and postures, thereby allowing the body to move more freely, to breathe properly and this in turn can allow the mind more freedom when the student moves on to the meditation level. However, at its most basic level, yoga can be used as a gentle fitness regime, and this style is ideal for both beginners and the more experienced students in a mixed class. For the inexperienced, and as part of a ‘retreat' weekend, we can learn and use some of the very simple postures and relaxation techniques to carry forward into ‘everyday' life, and hopefully it may provide the incentive to carry on when you get back to reality!
