# The Yoga Extension
The Yoga Extension is an established Iyengar Yoga studio operating across two Glasgow locations since 2006. Based primarily at Balance Studio on Napiershall Street and recently expanding to Studio 9 in Troon, they specialise in structured, alignment-focused yoga practice designed to build strength, suppleness and stamina progressively.
They cater to yoga newcomers through dedicated Yoga Basics and Beginner classes that establish fundamental techniques and build confidence. Intermediate practitioners can deepen their understanding via General classes in Glasgow or Beyond Basics sessions in Troon. This tiered approach means students develop at their own pace within a supportive environment.
What distinguishes The Yoga Extension is their commitment to Iyengar methodology—a precise, props-based approach that accommodates different abilities and physical limitations. Their intimate studio settings (15-person capacity in Glasgow, 8 in Troon) foster personalised attention. The team actively promotes yoga as more than physical exercise; their blog content reflects thoughtful exploration of practice benefits beyond the purely physical.
Led by experienced instructors like Frances, who has taught since 1990, the studio emphasises that yoga remains accessible regardless of physical constraints. They actively engage their community through social media and a newsletter, creating an inclusive culture where students feel supported throughout their yoga journey.
