BIOGRAPHY:

Iyengar Yoga presented itself to Cathy when as a struggling young mother when she read a newspaper article in the Times newspaper which had been left on a Brighton train in 1975. 48 years later she is teaching at YogaSouth Lancing, Sussex, UK which she co-directs with her husband Randall Evans.

The UK was fortunate to receive regular visits from BKS Iyengar; London, Oxford, Manchester, Cheltenham. Cathy moved heaven and earth to be at each of Guruji’s classes, workshops and demonstrations from the ‘70s onwards. Kofi Busia was at that time a key player in the emerging Iyengar Yoga community. Cathy was delighted to be Kofi’s student at various workshops which he gave in Oxford, Hampshire and Brighton. Cathy maintained a strong dedicated yoga practice through many difficult times and she knows that her practice guided by her dedicated teachers in the UK is what has shaped her life.

The wonderful learning and transmission received directly from BKS Iyengar on the over 20 visits to RIMYI, Panchgani and Rishikesh, India is what Cathy values most. BKS Iyengar was always encouraging Cathy to teach, train teachers and to take on responsibilities in the various Iyengar communities where she lived. Cathy looks forward to teaching at the Navayogimārga online Yoga festival which will provide an opportunity for some of her worldwide students to be taught by her again, now that she has returned to live in the UK after 13 years of living and teaching in the USA and travelling to Mexico to train teachers. 

“Cathy Rogers is a student of mine for more than 20 years who is sincere, hardworking and Integrated Personality in the Art of practicing Yoga as well as in teaching the same art. As Cathy Rogers is a well established student of Yoga, I am sure that she would do full justice in the art of teaching where ever she is given an opportunity to teach. In the UK she has taken responsibility on many ways in teaching, assessing, writing articles on the subject with proficiency.”
