A Source for a good life

To all who come to us, we always try our best to provide insight into what Iyengar Yoga can be.

Our dedication and transfer of knowledge themselves become the motive to achieve more knowledge and, as such, become the source of a fulfilling life.

Siew Keow Tan, Elaine

Elaine started learning from a teacher of the Bihar School tradition in the year 1998. In 2008, she found her way to the Iyengar Institute in Pune, where she took her first Iyengar Yoga class. After 8 months in Pune, she was introduced to a senior Iyengar Yoga teacher, Usha Devi, in Rishikesh and studied with her instensively. This step made it possible for her to achieve a higher level in Iyengar Yoga practice. In the year 2009 she decided to make the way of yoga her way of life and immediately

signed up for the first Iyengar Yoga Teachers Training Course run by the now defunct Iyengar Yoga Association of South East and East Asia (IYASEEA). While there, she also started assisting Lothar Böhringer in general class and teaching yoga. These valuable learning opportunities helped her tremendously and she is now a certified Iyengar Yoga teacher. Now, 12 years after she changed the course of her life, she is walking the path of yoga and leading the way of life that makes her happy.

Lothar Böhringer

Lothar ́s journey on the path of holistically comprehended Yoga began in the year 2001. After 8 years of intensive learning and practice, he could teach others and has been doing so ever since. He received his training from distinguished experts, particularly Usha Devi (Rishikesh, India) and Zubin Zarthoshtimanesh (Mumbai, India), but also from further teachers of Iyengar Yoga with many years of experience. Continuous learning in his Yoga style demands that he regularly return to the Iyengar Institute in Pune to take part in the instruction given by the Iyengar family.

This continuous process not only offers ever further insight, it is to him a part of his vision, in which life, love and spirit come together in harmony. His courses stress the important points of healthy breathing and exact body posture, while sometimes using aids to achieve these. The style of his instruction is intuitive and promotes the hidden abilities of his students while at the same time challenging them to reach beyond their perceived limits. He is a dynamic, inspiring Yoga teacher who infuses every session of instruction with energy, humor and philosophy.
