There is a yoga school towards Indagweon Station and the instructor is pretty fluent in English (just have to talk a little slowly). If you are coming towards Lotte Mart you just head towards Indagweon Station, you take a right on the same side of the road as Lotte at the lights. It's a little bit past the Hi-Mart, across the main street from the Health Club, Polo, Tommy and all those stores.
At those lights you turn right, you will see a hospital, it's in that building, While walking you will see a Pharmacy, that's the building you enter. The teacher is pretty cool, both he and his wife are yoga instructors and he has one of the best beards I've seen ion Korea. On the other side of the road there is a small Toast vendor.
My directions might not be the best, but I needed a map drawn on a piece of paper to ger me there. You can always PM for more details. I don't know price or anything, I just know the location and the instructor. |

So now the yoga instructor must be English? Or you're looking for an English teacher?
Have you considered the OBVIOUS benefits of being in a Korean-only studio? That's how my studio is, and I wouldn't have it any other way. |

I dont know about Yoga clubs, but I heard about a 8 week yoga training course organised at Shin Yeongtong YMCA (Shin Yeongtong is in suwon, about 3Kms from Suwon station) by some of my acquaintances and conducted by an Indian Yoga Professor. Time will be 6~7PM, saturday, starting from this weekend.
I might also take part in it. If you are interested, you can PM me so that I can route you to the organisers. You can hear further details from them.
Since it is conducted by an Indian Yoga Professor and attended by many nationalities, medium of instruction will be in English. |
