Iyengar Yoga Switzerland

Yoga according to B.K.S. Iyengar

The Iyengar Yoga Switzerland Association (IYS) promotes Iyengar Yoga throughout Switzerland and ensures the quality of teaching between Lake Constance and Lake Geneva. IYS takes care of the training, further education and certification of teachers and regularly organizes conventions with renowned teachers from Germany and abroad. The association is thus continuing a tradition that began in the 1950s: The great violinist Yehudi Menuhin attended the yoga classes of B.K.S. Iyengar in India at the time and invited the master several times to his chalet in Gstaad so that B.K.S. Iyengar could teach and give lectures in the Bernese Oberland.

About Uday Bhosale

My passion for Iyengar Yoga began in the late 1990s. Since 2002, I have been studying and teaching at the Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute (RIMYI) in Pune, India, formerly with Guruji B.K.S. Iyengar and his daughter Geetaji, and currently with Prashantji. With over 25 years of teaching experience – including 15 years at RIMYI – I have taught thousands of students, of all ages and of all levels, in more than 20 countries, in workshops, live classes and online courses.
