Bernie Prestidge Level 2

Thanks for a warm welcome into the BMIY community.

Iyengar yoga and its beneficial aspects resonated with me from the start-(about 2004 ish), planting a seed of curiosity that grew. I was drawn to its 'no frills' approach, the intelligent use of props, and the ability of experienced teachers.

Already having attained a Yoga teaching certificate I was encouraged to pursue Iyengar teacher training and did so with Lulu at BMIYS. I ran a studio in Armidale for 10 years which is now closed. I am excited to open a new chapter here and to have the opportunity to teach again!

Yoga has always been like coming home for me and a constant reminder that we are much more than a nervous system reacting to the world. It is experiential and when practiced with regularity and focus can cut through layers of resistance in both body and mind.

The practice has also been supportive during times of adversity.

Looking forward to the next few months teaching here and being amongst a like-minded community.
