Daniel West

Daniel first became aware of yoga as a child, copying mom on the lounge room floor. He became interested in yoga in his early 20’s, when physical exercise, discipline and athletics was particularly demanding – working from a book before and after regular strenuous sessions. Subsequently, practicing more formally at the Sivananda Ashram, he found yoga an antidote to the stresses of a demanding professional and family life.

Daniel came to Iyengar Yoga ten years ago at Yoga West and has been practicing assiduously since, becoming convinced of the benefit of Mr Iyengar’s method over other forms. He undertook teacher training with John Leebold. Daniel has an Introductory Level II and attends numerous workshops with other senior teachers, the National Convention and attended a convention with Geeta Iyengar in South Africia in 2011.
