Manchester United currently offer Iyengar yoga at their training ground and the first team and the youth team have been using the teaching since 2003.

An English international/premiership football player here at Birmingham who after 10 months off with injury problems became match fit within 10 weeks of remedial yoga tuition has also spoken about his yoga aided recovery in the press.

The English cricketers, have been practicing Iyengar yoga with us since 2004 at Loughborough. Their Physios have noticed that players who commit to yoga recover from injuries quickly and tend to suffer from injuries less often.'Quite simply the cricketers that have bought into the programme delivered by the Institute spend less time on the treatment table'.
