Centro de yoga Iyengar®

This is a proper Iyengar yoga centre on Calle Santa Teresa in Altea's Casc Antic, the old town, and it's the place to go if you like precise, alignment-focused yoga with props. It's run by María Fernández de Luis, a certified Iyengar teacher listed in the official Iyengar teacher directory, who's practised since 1999 and studied in Pune with the Iyengar family. Props are a standard part of every class, and María adapts poses to each person. Classes are graded by level, from Level I for newcomers up to Level III, with a restorative class and online sessions too. Reviewers describe her as patient and very observant, and several mention coming for help with a stiff or sore back and staying for the calm, breath-focused feel of the class. Places need confirming before you turn up, so message ahead and check the current timetable. She also runs intensives and retreats. Reviewers mention free parking nearby, which is handy given how tight Altea's old town gets.
