Blue Mountains Iyengar Yoga Studio, established in 1994, is a renowned yoga studio located in the heart of Blackheath in the Blue Mountains. The studio follows the teaching tradition of BKS Iyengar and offers a fully equipped space for students of all levels, from complete beginners to advanced practitioners. Additionally, the studio provides both in-studio and online classes to accommodate various preferences.
Surrounded by the breathtaking Blue Mountains National Park, Blackheath offers a serene and natural environment that complements the yoga practise. The director and Senior Teacher of the studio, Lulu Bull, studied with BKS Iyengar and maintains a strong ongoing relationship with the Iyengar Institute in Pune, frequently visiting for continued learning and inspiration. With over three decades of practise and teaching experience, Lulu holds a Senior Level Three Certificate and conducts teacher training within the school.
In addition to regular classes, Blue Mountains Iyengar Yoga Studio also organises retreats and workshops, with Lulu travelling interstate to share her expertise with students from across the country. The studio is closed for holidays on specific dates, but regular classes resume promptly, ensuring a consistent and reliable practise schedule.
The studio's philosophy and approach to yoga are deeply rooted in the quote by BKS Iyengar: “Practise should be approached in all seriousness with dedication & commitment, but should be done with lightness and love. ” This encapsulates the ethos of the studio, where students are encouraged to approach their practise with devotion and discipline while embracing joy and compassion.
For beginners, the studio offers specific classes tailored to introduce students to Iyengar Yoga and gradually build a strong foundation. The class timetable is comprehensive, covering various levels from Beginners to Level 3, as well as specialised classes for over 55s. In addition, the studio provides private and remedial yoga sessions for those seeking personalised attention and healing.
Blue Mountains Iyengar Yoga Studio proudly acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land, the Darug and Gundungurra people, and pays respect to their elders, both past and present.
