Iyengar Yoga with Alice

Alice is a brilliant yoga teacher. Her instructions are so clear and she has such great attention to detail. Everyone can benefit from her classes, whether beginner or more experienced; she makes you work hard with a sense of humour throughout. I always leave her classes with a sense of achievement and calm which lasts for the rest of the day.

I have been doing yoga with Alice since September 2021 and her classes are the most fulfilling I have ever been to. They are quite demanding but they are also much fun and you get a lot out of them. Alice is very good at explaining how to position each part of the body and this is very helpful for people like me who haven't got the best body awareness. She is very good at encouraging you to give your best and she herself gives her best in her teaching. Really brilliant.

I have had 4 major surgeries on my right hip and have always stayed away from Yoga, as I felt I wouldn't be able to properly do the exercises...until I met Alice Knowelden. After explaining my "limitations" to Alice before my first class, she told me she would "keep her eye on me." She has done that and much more. Every class, she has patiently guided me, through her gentle but firm teaching style to find my way into Iyengar Yoga. My stature, movement, and flexibility have continually improved. On top of all that, though she takes Yoga very seriously, she doesn't take herself seriously. She has a great sense of humor and the classes, even though they can be quite tough -- because she sees and corrects EVERYTHING -- she does it in such a charming way as to make you want to be better every class. She loves yoga. She loves teaching -- and it shows. I can highly recommend working with Alice!

I have been going to Alice's classes for a few years and I can credit her for helping me with my recovery from a slipped disc. I tried many different teachers but Alice genuinely takes care with every individual, and pays close attention to any injuries they might have. Even in her zoom classes, which she doesn't oversubscribe so she can still observe each student. Iyengar is a very detailed and considered practice and Alice teaches it with amazing knowledge and kindness.

Alice is the most superb yoga instructor. I can’t recommend her enough. She’s so attentive, gives such clear, excellent instructions and even online she can tell when you’re clenching your teeth!

Her restorative classes are JUST divine ...you’ll be in for a treat!

Imagine always looking forward to your yoga class because you know that every time it will be perfect for your needs. This is how Alice's Iyengar classes are, led through her expert guidance, carefully planned and always clearly explained sequences, leaving you completely refreshed and physically in balance for the rest of the day. I've been to Iyengar yoga classes for the past 35 years with many different teachers but Alice is probably close to the very best and brilliant online.

Alice has been doing wonderful on-line yoga right through this mad Covid year and it has absolutely saved me. She teaches really well, with clear instructions and correcting when needed. Her restorative sessions have been a particular blessing but it’s all been great and I would really recommend her classes to anyone looking for an excellent and kind Iyengar teacher.

Alice is a great yoga instructor. She explains thing clearly and thoroughly and always suggests alternative poses if needed. Since covid I’ve been attending her online classes as regularly as life permits and have found them beneficial and enjoyable. I highly recommend a yoga class with Alice!
