We are delighted to announce that bookings are now open for Rajlaxmi’s weekend of yoga taking place in August.
 
It is a great honour that Rajlaxmi is coming to Scotland to teach us in person at the EIYC this summer.  As one of the longest serving teachers at RIMYI she was mentored directly by Guruji and Geetaji and her deep understanding of the subject, together with a spirit of passionate enquiry, shines through her teaching.
