I have been practising yoga since 1995. It all began in California, where I was working as a software consultant and living in San Francisco. My yoga teacher - Katie Shultz - was an Iyengar teacher and she inspired me to become a teacher myself. My meditation teacher, Eugene Cash, was also a truly inspiring teacher and my life transformed as I sat numerous retreats at Spirit Rock meditation centre in Marin County, California.

I have often heard friends say they'd like to start yoga but for various reasons they didn't quite get round to it. So I had the idea of an online resource where you can find all the classes in your area; with plenty of tips and extra information about what to expect when you start going to classes.
