Yoga Phala

Yoga Phala is a well-established yoga studio situated in Auckland, New Zealand. With a strong emphasis on Iyengar yoga, the studio offers a unique and meticulous approach to yoga practise. Developed by BKS Iyengar, Iyengar yoga focuses on precision and alignment in the asana (poses).

At Yoga Phala, the use of simple props such as blocks, belts, and bolsters is integrated into the practise to maximise openings in the body and build awareness. These props provide support to those who are less flexible and offer extra extension for more advanced students. With small class sizes, limited to a maximum of 8 students per class, Yoga Phala ensures personal attention and tailored instruction to suit each individual's ability and experience.

Kathleen Powell, the passionate owner and teacher at Yoga Phala, is a Level 3 certified Iyengar yoga instructor. With a dedicated practise in Iyengar yoga since 1997, Kathleen has been teaching at various studios across Auckland since 2007. Her expertise and experience make Yoga Phala a go-to destination for those seeking to deepen their yoga practise.
