Our yoga teachers
Nathalie Blondel has been practising Iyengar Yoga for over 40 years. She is an exceptionally experienced teacher, and has been teaching full time for over 20 years.
She regularly studies at the Iyengar Yoga Institute in Pune (India), and attends workshops and conventions with leading teachers of Iyengar Yoga. She holds a Level 3 Certificate, which qualifies her to do themed workshops and remedial work. Nathalie is an IY (UK) assessor and mentor.
Karen Hamer originally trained as a dancer at Arts Educational in London where she quickly realised that teaching movement was where she was most fulfilled.
“I was hooked on Iyengar yoga from my first class, noticing improvement in my strength, mobility and overall mood – I felt joy from moving – I kept wanting to go back for more. I have built my practice over ten years working with Nathalie.
“Iyengar felt revolutionary – not about reflections, but what is happening inside, not about outward images but internal mechanics – how it feels, how it is strengthening from inside.”
Find out more about Iyengar yoga
Iyengar Yoga is an education. It is a science and an art for improving mental and physical health. In the words of BKS Iyengar, the school’s founder, it is a ‘practical philosophy to be experienced.’ Most importantly, yoga is suitable for everyone.
At all stages of life, the benefits of yoga include enhancing your concentration, breathing, and stamina. It strengthens your immune system, and helps improve both minor injuries and day-to-day aches and pains, as well as long term medical conditions.

Testimonials
I feel very privileged to be able to attend Nathalie’s classes. The depth of her knowledge, her discipline and her compassion really inspires me and I am so grateful to have her as my teacher.
Mary, Head Of Account Management
I had been suffering from acute shoulder and neck pain for 2 years, and receiving physiotherapy treatment, but it never really seemed to get much better. A friend of mine recommended I try Iyengar Yoga as an alternative. I was amazed that after six months there was remarkable improvement in my condition, and it keeps on improving. Nathalie is very passionate in class and creates great enthusiasm for yoga, meaning that I practice at home as well as just at class. Thank you Nathalie!
Andrew, Business Owner
I have attended Nathalie’s classes and workshops over the past 12 years. She is a passionate and knowledgeable teacher. She adapts her classes to ensure those with injuries can participate fully and prioritises safety. I would thoroughly recommend starting or continuing your Iyengar yoga training with her.
Lizzie, Doctor
I have been going to Nathalies iyengar yoga class for nearly 6 years and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Due to my job as a seamstress my hands are often in pain. Over the time I have been attending her class the pain has been reduced and I can see how much stronger I have become. I can’t really express how much it’s helped me in words.
