About Jane
She was introduced to yoga at the age of 13, when her mother Ruth attended classes with B K S Iyengar in London in 1966. Ruth loved his classes and Iyengar gave her his book, the classic Light on Yoga. When Ruth died in 1967, Jane inherited this gift and comforted herself by practicing yoga.
Jane studied integral yoga for 4 years with the late Kevin Kingsland, the BWY Dip with Jenni Adams, frequently studies and refers to texts from the great classical teachers, and attends workshops/retreats when possible.
An E-RYT with the US Yoga Alliance, qualified to conduct teacher training, yoga CPD courses, and a Yoga Elder (Yoga Teachers Together) with thousands of hours teaching and training experience.
