About Ashtanga Yoga Edinburgh.

Ashtanga Yoga Edinburgh opened in June 2024, taking over the former Iyengar studio - Yoga Stable. AYE is run by L2 Authorised Teacher Emma Isokivi and senior Mysore team including Karen Kirkness, who founded AYE back in 2008 (formerly Bristo Yoga School + Meadowlark Yoga).

In our comprehensive schedule, we offer both morning, late morning and evening Mysore style classes and Led classes for brand new beginners and more advanced students. Both in-person and online options are available.

We prioritise your individual needs using a student-centred approach, allowing you to create a practice that aligns with your unique context—whether it’s your location, schedule, body, or personal circumstances.

The studio also offers additional classes that represent beyond the Ashtanga Vinyasa traditional under the Hillside Collective umbrella.

Our experienced senior teachers are so excited to welcome you into our community, whether you are new to yoga or an experienced practitioner looking for a new space to continue your practice, we look forward to seeing you here.
