Clifton Hill Yoga Studio

I had heard a lot of good things about this place, but as a beginner was still a little apprehensive. The moment I walked in I felt at ease and was made to feel so very welcome. The studios are beautiful & big and the place has a great feel to it. I’d strongly recommend it!

If you’re looking for your Iyengar fix, without the hippier-​than-​thou attitude, this is the place for you. They have a range of class times throughout the week, and the room is large so I’ve never seen it over-​crowded. The teachers are pretty zen and know what they’s doing.

Clifton Hill Yoga Studio teaches Iyengar Yoga.
OK It’s may not be the fashionably hip Bikram, but you certainly get a good stretch after each session.
The studio is a giant bright and airy space with another tiny upstairs studio as well. Despite it being situated right on Queens Parade, once those doors are closed you can’t hear another sound except your own (and other fellow yogis) deep breaths.
This form of yoga uses a variety of props, including ropes, ‘bricks’, chairs, blankets and bolsters which are all provided so you don’t need to bring a thing! The teachers are all very friendly and make sure to pull or push you into the right position. They are also very helpful with any questions after.
I was at sure at first whether I would like this form of yoga, (and also the school), but I’m now a Iyengar convert!
