About
Welcome to Balwyn Yoga Centre, the longest running yoga school in Victoria, practising the Iyengar style of Yoga. With a history dating back to 1968, Balwyn Yoga Centre offers a complete system of development in physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.
The principal of Balwyn Yoga Centre, Mrs Lang, brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the school, having been a student of Mr B. K. S. Iyengar in India.
She has attended workshops for over 10 years and uses her expertise to train a team of qualified teachers in the correct methods and practises of Iyengar style Yoga. Each teacher at Balwyn Yoga Centre has over 10 years of experience as both a student and teacher, providing guidance in the development of your yoga skills.
Located in Balwyn, the reputation of Balwyn Yoga Centre attracts students from all over Melbourne. Its central location also makes it convenient for those in surrounding suburbs such as Box Hill, Doncaster, Surrey Hills, Hawthorn, Kew, and Camberwell. Whether you prefer to travel by public transport or have your own vehicle, access to the centre is easy with the tram route 109 nearby and ample parking available during class times.
At Balwyn Yoga Centre, we focus on physical or 'Iyengar' style Yoga. While most people seek physical improvement, yoga is an effective way to also loosen stiff bodies, increase fitness, and improve overall well-being. Our approach to Iyengar style Yoga is entirely non-competitive, with progress determined by the individual. Each student receives personalised attention and guidance depending on their commitment and effort.
Yoga at Balwyn Yoga Centre is not a religion and does not conflict with anyone's personal beliefs. Instead, it offers a greater enjoyment of life, increased strength, and flexibility.
In addition to our regular classes, Balwyn Yoga Centre offers a specialised beginner class taught by a teacher who is fluent in Chinese. This beginner class focuses on teaching correct poses and helps integrate students into the main classes when they are ready to progress. You will also learn exercises that teach you the correct way to breathe and relax. These exercises, when practised regularly and carefully, can help individuals of all ages increase vitality, overcome fatigue, adjust weight, control insomnia, and keep old age at bay.
Join us at Balwyn Yoga Centre and experience the benefits of Iyengar style Yoga. For more information or to book a class, contact us at 9830 0133 or visit our centre located at 514 Whitehorse Road, Surrey Hills, VIC 3127.
