We are delighted to welcome you to our website and hope you will be able to visit our school soon.
Whether you are a Northern Rivers local, or visiting our beautiful region, you will find classes to suit your interests and capability.
We offer daily classes in a modern, fully equipped studio, taught by professionally trained and experienced teachers.
Ballina Yoga teaches traditional yoga in the Iyengar method as prescribed by B.K.S. Iyengar, often described as the “father of modern yoga”. His teaching brought a systemic approach to yoga teaching and sequencing so that all students can access the asanas (poses) and develop their strength and skill over time.
The School is owned by Helen Willoughby, a practitioner with more than 20 years experience.
We look forward to continuing to provide a community for students and teachers to come together to explore the transformative benefits of yoga.
You can find out more about our school and teachers, along with what’s coming up, and information and resources to help you, on this website.
If you are keen to learn yoga you can join our Beginner and Foundation classes for under $12 a class as a special introductory 15-class pass offer starting January 2025. There are three classes per week to choose from:
Tuesday Beginners – 5.30 to 6.45pm
Friday Foundation – 9.30 to 11.00am
Saturday Foundation – 10.00 to 11.30am
The 15-class pass costs $170 and must be used within three months from the date of purchase. The advantage of this approach is students can start anytime and join a class that caters to your level of experience, whether you are new or with some experience.
At Ballina Yoga we run regular workshops to provide students with the opportunity to refine their understanding of Asana (the poses) and Pranyama (breath work). Workshops are taught by teachers at the school and periodically by guest teachers.
