Workshop with Wendy McGuire

Saturday, 30th January 2016 at 1:30pm - 4:30pm

At: The Harringay Club, 50 Tottenham Lane, London N8 7EE

NELIYI are very lucky to be able to offer a workshop with Wendy McGuire, an experienced yoga teacher, qualified to Senior Level 2, who has been practising Iyengar Yoga for 35 years.

Wendy’s lively teaching style and infectious enthusiasm for Iyengar Yoga inspires beginners and more experienced students alike.  Many of her students have themselves gone on to become teachers.

She says: “Students and friends often ask me how yoga has changed my life. It is impossible for me to answer that question – yoga is part of my life”.

Wendy started learning with an inspiring teacher, Joy Hicks, who is still teaching in the USA. Other teachers include Dorothy Robinson, who ended up training her to become a teacher, and Penny Chaplin, with whom she still attends classes.

She currently teaches popular intermediate, general and beginners' classes in South East London.

Advance booking (click on 'Buy tickets') is necessary for this workshop, as it is likely that this will be a popular event. Please send any enquiries about this workshop to Pam  pammackenzie@live.co.uk

This month we are offering 2 inspiring workshops.

• On the 28th of November, we are delighted to welcome Aidan Love who is currently building the profile of Iyengar yoga in Istanbul, Turkey. He trained to become a teacher right here in North London and is familiar with many of us. With his new found life in Turkey, he brings a new perspective from Eastern Mediterrenian!

Just in case you missed our email, here's a reminder that it's time to renew your NELIYI membership. If you're not yet a member, now is an excellent time to join, because you get up to three weeks free! Join or renew now, and your membership lasts until the end of March 2017.
The easiest way is to join or renew online (click on the Joining NELIYI tab above or here), or get a copy of the joining form from a committee member.

We look forward to welcoming you to NELIYI's 2015 Annual General Meeting tomorrow (Sunday 28 June) at the Harringay Club, 50 Tottenham Lane, London N8 7EE.
The meeting will start at 12.15 (earlier than originally announced), just after the workshop with Aubrey Maasdorp (spaces available, starts at 9.15 am). We don't expect the meeting to go on after 1pm, but it is in an important occasion, since we expect to be adopting our newly revised Constitution.
Thank you to all who have voted for that; if you haven't voted, you still can, at the AGM, or by email beforehand to leonard.louise@blueyonder.co.uk - that's NELIYI's Chair.
