She has also tau ght many famous people too who went on to practice Iyengar yoga long term – including film stars\, rockstars\, top sports teams including the Engl and Cricket team\, football teams\, amateur and professional golfers and p rofessional ice hockey players. She has a particular interest in Indian Ph ilosophy and leads study groups on the subject. She also runs the medical class at the Institute and trains other Iyengar teachers in Therapy Work a nd guiding them through level 2 and 3 certification.\n\nFor many years Jay ne has been the teacher to the first team at Birmingham City Football Club where she teaches at the training ground in Birmingham on a weekly basis alongside the physiotherapy team and backroom staff and assists the player s with specific injuries on the recommendation of the team doctor.\n\nApar t from being a lifelong BCFC fan\, her interests also include Indian Philo sophy\, reading and writing poetry and walking in nature with her beloved Jack Russell – Sparky (aka ‘Spark of Divinity’)\n\nProgramme:\n\nFr iday intermediate class: 2pm - 5pm\, £30 members/£35 non members\n\nFrid ay online Pranayama class (you can stay and do the class at MDIY): 6pm - 7 pm - £6 members £12 non members\n\nSaturday day: 10am - 3:30pm-  with a short break £50 members/£55nm\n\n\n\n\nBooking Help:\n\nIt is essential you tell us of any illnesses or injuries days in advance of the workshops please fill in the booking form.
