About Eyal Shifroni
A computer scientist by training, Eyal is fascinated by the logic and precision of Iyengar Yoga. When he’s not traveling the world, he is the director of the Iyengar Yoga Center of Zichron-Ya’akov (Israël). He loves yoga and hiking and practicing outdoors, combining the two. Many people all over the world enjoy his teaching for his creativity and commitment to yoga. His practice has a solid foundation, since he started practicing in 1978.
Eyal has written numerous books on the way we use props in the Iyengar method (A Chair for Yoga and the Props for Yoga series). Next to those manuals he also co-authored two books with Ohad Nachtomy. The first is a book about the interfaces of Western and Indian philosophy and how they relate to what we do on the mat: The Psychophysical Lab. Their most recent book is titled Yoga in Nature and Natural Props for Yoga, combining their twin passions for yoga and nature.
We have really enjoyed his gentle, refined and joyful teaching in his previous visits to Utrecht. In this upcoming workshop he will lead us through a sequence of asana and pranayama, interspersed with some philsophy readings and of course spiced up with some innovative prop use. So set aside this time for yourself to discover ways to deepen your practice and find inspiration. It’s a wonderful opportunity!

Eyal often donates to Physicians for Human Rights, so he asks to inform you that he intends to donate half of his income from the upcoming workshop for this humanitarian organization. You can learn about them on their website.
Program Costs
The days will start at 10.00 and end at 16.30. In between there will be time for a short (light!) lunch break and some rest. But Eyal will decide the exact timings according to the energy of the day and the group.
We think the workshop will be most beneficial if you can set aside the time to join the entire weekend, so the option to book single day tickets will open only after 1 April. Until that time, you can enjoy the early bird discount.
