Baillirina Yoga - on a break

Irina is my first yoga teacher and I feel extremely lucky and blessed to have met her. Irina is very caring, calm and patient, I feel extremely comfortable with her being a novice in this practice. Irinas sessions are always well-planned and coherent, they help one grow gradually but surely. After several months of practice Im happy to see progress: Ive become more balanced and flexible, and my mind learnt to calm down and relax.

Irina is an excellent teacher, her directions are clear combining precision and warmth. Everyone can participate in her classes and she makes yoga accessible and safe to all. As I deepen my practice and surrender the brain to the heart a profound feeling of gratitude for this precious discipline emerges from within my body. Punita

I discovered Iyengar yoga thanks to Irina's class which is absolutely fabulous. She adjusts the practice to all levels, using helpful props to make sure we're always well positioned. Her classes are complete and while your muscles do work, the postures are brought in a very organised manner which allows the body to work effectively and gently. I can only recommend her classes!

Irina is a great teacher. Her instructions are very clear, she always makes sure you're doing it correctly. If you have any health or mobility issues, she finds a better way for you to keep practicing. I feel very safe in her classes. I always leave the class feeling much better that when i came. She loves yoga and you can feel it.

Irinas class epitomises all that Yoga should be - a discipline that takes the mind, body and spirit to a higher level. I have been attending class for the past 7 months, during which time I have observed greater understanding of my body and its capabilities and a feeling of strength and calmness of the mind. Irina teaches the Iyengar form of yoga which has it's roots in Hatha yoga but incorporates the use of props - belts, blocks, blankets etc to aid the student to achieve the postures or asanas as I now know them to be. I find the asanas challenging but never feel my safety is compromised. Irinas guidance and expertise is reassuring. She demonstrates each asana with precision, it's a total consumption of mind and body increasing the awareness of every part involved. This practice requires time and understanding to achieve the optimum results but Im enjoying the journey immensely. The space (St Pauls Church) is an oasis of calm and I leave class feeling Im ready to take on life and be just that little bit more at peace with it. Julie
