My name is Kirsten Agar

I’ve been practising Iyengar Yoga since 1988 and qualified as a teacher in 1997. I have studied at the Iyengar Institute in Pune, India on 22 occasions and am certificated at Level 3.

I am based in North Yorkshire, UK and teach in-person classes here and interactive online classes to people from all over the world. I’m invited to teach around the UK and overseas. I established and co-directed the Bath Iyengar Yoga Centre for twenty-one years and am a qualified and experienced mentor.

I also sell Iyengar Yoga study materials.

“Kirsten is a really experienced teacher with a keen eye for detail. I’ve often found her knowledge in classes to be transformative giving me so much to carry through to my practice. Her explanations of asanas, but also philosophy and her use of props have a clarity and depth that is very valuable and hard to come by..”
