House of Ashtanga Yoga

General information

Known for his hands-on adjustment technique, Dan teaches workshops to yoga students as well as training other ashtanga yoga teachers throughout England and Europe, but can usually be found teaching regular classes throughout the week in Newcastle upon Tyne.

Central to the House of Ashtanga’s success is a beautiful purpose-built yoga room situated in a peaceful area in the east end of Newcastle upon Tyne. Surrounded by an old woodland area, the yoga room oozes tranquility and a calm healing energy. Many students find their yoga practice transformed by this wonderful atmosphere.

Extra special thanks to Nancy Gilgoff for her continued support and sheer dedication to sharing this yoga.

Huge thanks to Beryl Bender Birch and David Swenson for teaching the practice, and Mark Ansari and Nancy Gilgoff for their wonderful adjustment techniques.

Dan has also been incredibly fortunate to have had the helping hands of some fantastic assistants. Thank you Meri Erkkilä, Steph Meysner, Wei Wei and Mileva.
