# IYENGAR® Yoga Oxford
IYENGAR® Yoga Oxford offers 90-minute classes in Iyengar yoga, a methodical and safety-focused practice emphasising precise alignment and progressive development. Led by Toby Golds, a Level 3 qualified teacher with 26 years of personal practice and 16 years of teaching experience, the studio operates from the Old Schoolhouse near Cowley Road in Oxford.
The business serves people of all abilities, from complete beginners to experienced practitioners. Iyengar yoga's systematic approach makes it particularly accessible for those managing injuries, chronic pain, or limited flexibility, as classes use props and supports to allow safe progression at individual paces. Classes suit all ages and body types, appealing to those seeking physical benefits like strength and flexibility alongside mental wellbeing improvements including stress relief, concentration and confidence.
What distinguishes IYENGAR® Yoga Oxford is Toby's deep credentials—she has studied with the Iyengar family in Pune, India, bringing authentic lineage teaching. The fully equipped studio provides all necessary props for borrowing, removing barriers to participation. The pay-what-you-want pricing model demonstrates genuine accessibility commitment rather than profit maximisation.
The teaching philosophy prioritises absolute safety through detailed correctness and individualised modifications. Classes progress systematically from basic postures through to advanced work, with pranayama (breath control) introduced once students develop a firm foundation. This structured, graded approach differentiates Iyengar yoga from more fluid or fitness-oriented styles, appealing to those seeking rigorous, therapeutic practice.
