Sylvia Guenther is an internationally certified Level 3 Iyengar Yoga teacher and is also certified as a Yoga Therapist with IYAT.

She has studied at the Ramamani Yoga Institute in Pune India in 2008, 2010, 2012, 2015 and 2018 with B.K.S. Iyengar, Geeta Iyengar, Prashant Iyengar and Abhijati Iyengar.

Sylvia serves on the Steering Committee of the Professional Development Committee of the Iyengar Yoga Association of Canada,  is a National Assessor in Training and mentors training teachers.  Her dedication to yoga began over 20 years ago when she experienced the benefits of practicing therapeutic Iyengar Yoga after being diagnosed with a terminal illness. With the help of a new “miracle drug”, yoga and the support of her family she made a dramatic recovery.  She learned that by practicing yoga daily she significantly improves her physical, mental and spiritual well-being. Becoming an Iyengar Yoga teacher was a result of her desire to share the benefits of yoga with others.

Sylvia is currently teaching  classes online.   She has previously taught at Scugog Yoga, Swegon North America, Warrior Spirit,  Leaside Yoga , Yoga Centre Toronto and Joga in Sint Maarten.
