WHAT WE DO

Iyengar Yoga Ottawa Gatineau is dedicated to promoting the art, science and philosophy of yoga according to the tradition of our teacher Sri B.K.S. Iyengar. Mr. Iyengar, whom we affectionately call Guruji, was born December 14, 1918. While he officially ‘retired’ from teaching, he continues to inspire us through his writing and five hour daily practice.

Public education is important to us, and we work to inform the community and healthcare professionals about the benefits of Iyengar Yoga. We are actively involved with national and international organizations sharing similar goals, such as the Iyengar Yoga Association of Canada. Our teachers contribute to the work of the national association by serving on committees and the board of directors.
