AYO - Astanga Yoga Oldham

AYO is a network of yoga alliance registered teachers promoting the Astanga yoga method across North Manchester. We offer classes in Royton, Oldham, Rochdale, Hyde, and Prestwich. All teachers have a committed regular ashtanga practice and continued guidance from an authorised KPJAYI teacher. Each teacher is able to observe the body, give hands on adjustments and guide students to follow a committed yoga practice. The network has recently expanded and now has links in the heart of Veliko Tarnovo and central Bulgaria where we plan to promote the ashtanga system by offering regular classes and organising international workshops and retreats with authorised ashtanga teachers.

We run a full timetable of small classes and private tuition to help spread the love of health and wellbeing, making you all happy shiny people. Most classes are simply drop in, so visit us and experience something much more than a physical experience.
