Who are we

Our yoga school has one of the best locations in Copenhagen... facing directly onto the lakes. You will receive a warm welcome at our wonderful new facilities that are both spacious and light. We hope you will be inspired by the surroundings, atmosphere, and the chance to immerse yourself in IYENGAR^® yoga.

The idea behind our new yoga centre has been many years in the making. We first met BKS Iyengar in 1996 during one of his last ”Intensives” in Puna, India. Those 3 weeks radically changed our lives – and our understanding of yoga. Since that time, we have been back to Puna many times, whilst we steadily grew out of our old facilities – both mentally and physically.

We therefore decided to create a new and larger centre with space to work with yoga and the study of asanas (positions) and pranayama (breathing exercises), ideally suited to teaching BKS Iyengar’s unique and lifelong approach to yoga.
All teachers at the BKS Yoga Centre Copenhagen have at least 6 years experience with Iyengar yoga, and all receive regular training from senior teachers and the Iyengar family.

Our goal is simple: to ensure that, from us, you can always expect to receive inspiring, competent and safe teaching of a high standard, in line with recommendations from BKS and Geeta Iyengar.
Whether you are a new beginner, or have practised yoga for many years, we can offer teaching to match your experience. Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you need help or advice to choose the right level.
We hope to see you soon.

Kindest regards
Claus Bendson Wittig and Jette Berring
