Islington Yoga was founded in 2000. We teach Shadow Yoga, a dynamic form of Hatha Yoga developed by Sundernath and Emma Balnaves. Introductory Courses are offered for beginners, providing a sound foundation for the yoga practice, as well as weekly classes, intensive courses, workshops and retreats for experienced students. Individual practice classes and courses are available for those wishing to cultivate and/or deepen their own practice.

Beginners courses at Islington Yoga provide a sound foundation for the practice of yoga. The introductory movements are accessible for all levels of ability and for all ages. The teaching is progressive, however each student can develop at their own pace, working through the different levels of the prelude forms of Shadow Yoga and subsequent seated postures and yoga-asanas.
