Director of the maidstone yoga centre, Lin was drawn to yoga to correct lower back pain and soon began to realise its tremendous benefits. Lin has now been practising Iyengar yoga for over 26 years and teaching for 14.  Lin makes regular visits to Pune, India, where she studies and takes part in the classes taught by the Iyengar family.

"From my very first class I was hooked, with so much to learn - not just from the asana practice, but with the whole subject. Iyengar Yoga opened the door to a refreshing, absorbing and balanced approach to my Yoga.  This was to be the start of a long journey that has enhanced and added great value to my life physically and mentally."

Lin is a qualified Junior Intermediate Iyengar Teacher and belongs to the BKSIYTA (BKS Iyengar Yoga Teachers Association). In addition Lin holds a full teaching qualification.

Leo is a new teacher to the maidstone yoga centre, but brings a lot of experience and maturity in her teaching.
