Dorset and Hampshire Iyengar Yoga Institute

The committee of The Dorset and Hampshire Iyengar Yoga Institute are delighted to announce that Jose Maria Vigar, a highly respected senior Iyengar yoga teacher from Malaga, has agreed to come and teach for our Institute in Bournemouth on Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th June !

Jose Maria is the director of "Sadhana de Yoga Iyengar", a beautiful yoga centre in Malaga. As well as having a degree in Biological Sciences, Jose Maria is a senior teacher who has been a dedicated pupil of Guruji BKS Iyengar since 1990, and he visits the Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute in Pune, India, every year.

Jose Maria is a member of the Spanish Iyengar yoga teacher training organisation, and as well as training teachers in Spain, Guruji has recently entrusted him with the setting up of a teacher training programme in Chile. He has also been appointed by Guruji to form part of the international tribunal of examiners for the annual assessment of Iyengar Yoga teachers in Mexico.

Jose Maria teaches with dedication, sincerity, warmth and sensitivity, and we hope as many of our members as possible will come to benefit from his experience.

The classes will be held at the popular venue of Bournemouth College Campus where we held our very successful weekend with Birjoo Mehta in 2008.

You will find an application form for this event enclosed with the DHIYI Newsletter which will be sent out soon along with the IYN magazine.
