A Level 2 & 3 workshop with Shaili Shafai

I am a professional Level 3 (Senior 1) Iyengar Yoga teacher and mentor from Tehran, Iran. My journey with Iyengar yoga started at age ten, in 1994 where I joined the children’s classes of the Iyengar Center of Tehran. As a child I also went to the remedial classes for help with my legs since I was born with hip dysplasia. Ever since, yoga has been a source of strength and inspiration in my life, and the global community of Iyengar yoga practitioners feels like my second family. Through yoga, I have had the opportunity to travel widely, including several times to the RIMYI.​My first teacher, Mahyar Raz, transformed my understanding of yoga forever with her profound knowledge of anatomy and philosophy. I have attended more than a thousand hours of intensive workshops led by Mr. Faeq Biria from whom I earned my introductory 1 certificate in 2006. Since moving to Cambridge in 2014, Sasha Perryman helped me prepare for my Junior III and Senior 1 that I obtained in November 2018. I have taught children, teenagers and adults throughout my career and I have also assisted remedial classes a few months in Pune, a month in Paris and more than 2 years at the CIY in Cambridge. I started mentoring in January 2021 and became a member of the Mentors and Assessors Support Group since the summer of 2021.
