Satyananda 2<br />

Yoga<br />

a growing community in <strong>Didsbury</strong> - by Sara Adler<br />

I grew up in London, though<br />

I came up North in the early<br />

eighties when I was 19,<br />

living in and around South<br />

Manchester. I remember<br />

clearly from those first<br />

years my almost<br />

instantaneous love<br />

for this city, its<br />

enormously diverse<br />

communities and<br />

the friendliness<br />

of its people – a<br />

feeling which still<br />

remains.<br />

At the end of 1997<br />

I set off to the other side of<br />

the world and lived most of<br />

the next decade in Australia.<br />

I went to my first yoga class<br />

whilst living in Milton, a small<br />

coastal town near Narrawallee<br />

on the South Coast of New<br />

South Wales. I still remember<br />

how it felt! Before then I had<br />

“I feel fitter and more flexible,<br />

able to cycle now with ease. Knee<br />

and back problems are improving<br />

all the time and I have an increased<br />

awareness on all sorts of levels.”<br />

student comment<br />

looked from a distance at<br />

other people practising yoga,<br />

I’d always been interested,<br />

but had never tried it.<br />

Just less than 2 years ago<br />

I had a strong sense that<br />

the time had finally come<br />

to return home to the<br />

community I had left behind<br />

in Britain. The moment<br />

had come for me to<br />

acknowledge that perhaps<br />

I had come home partly<br />

to share the yoga I had<br />

grown to love in Australia<br />

and somehow to combine<br />

it with my love of<br />

community.<br />

I’ve been teaching<br />

Satyananda Yoga in <strong>Didsbury</strong><br />

since the start of 2009.<br />

Classes have grown steadily<br />
