Yoga is a very personal journey and mine has been with the Iyengar school for over 30 years with various teachers who have guided me. With my recent move to Canberra I was very pleased to be able to connect with Alan Goode’s studio as his reputation as a teacher was known to me. I feel that involvement with this studio is where I need to be to carry on my self development with my yoga. I have only just begun to access the depth of knowledge that this studio offers with its numerous sessions and workshops. I am so grateful for such a beautiful space in which to continue my yoga journey and the many different individuals who are there to share their knowledge and understanding. I am looking forward to my continued growth with Yoga Mandir.
As someone who initially disliked yoga, my experience at Yoga Mandir has been transformative. I discovered yoga in its purest form, without the frills often associated with trendy studios. The extensive use of props to support and enhance proper alignment makes every pose accessible to anyone. I very much recommend this studio to anyone who is looking to understand how they can improve their wellbeing and know their body better.
Yoga Mandir has been an important anchor in my life since starting in 2017. Thank you Alan and all the teachers at Yoga Mandir for sharing your knowledge and wisdom about how to integrate yoga into life. Yoga can be accessible to anyone and the Beginners Basics class is an excellent introduction for anyone curious about yoga.
I attended Yoga Mandir classes from 2007 -2016. In 2016 I moved from Canberra to become a full time sailing vessel live aboard and hence have little access to classes. I am so grateful and feel very fortunate to have that opportunity as Yoga Mandir and Alan Goode taught me and empowered me to continue my yoga practice and my yoga growth on my own onboard. By the time I left Yoga Mandir for my new life I attended classes at Established practitioner level. I had previously attended yoga classes since 1992 and only managed my own practice sporadically and never mastered headstand or many other asanas for that matter.
Yoga Mandir provides a very high standard of yoga classes and yoga teachers. Anyone, of any level, any standard can go to Yoga Mandir and be in safe hands. There is no expectation that we need to be anyone but just who we are that day, with the body and mind that we have that day. The combination of asana and yoga philosophy provides us all with the 'tools' for everyday living. Over the many years of attending classes at Yoga Mandir I have learnt so much more than how to 'do yoga'. It has influenced a better way of living.
