John Stirk

John Stirk is a yoga teacher and Author with a background in osteopathy. He has been teaching yoga since 1974.


An association with R.D.Laing in the 1970’s and 1980’s, a resonance with the teaching of J.Krishnamurti and a dedicated personal approach have led to a shared practice that draws groups into an ever deepening physiological and psychological yoga experience.


John’s sessions combine anatomical sensitivity, states of mind and an intensification of consciousness while acknowledging that the deeper presence of the teacher coupled with the group field, fuels transformation.


He invites yoga teachers to trust in their authentic experience and guide others from the totality of their own in the moment insight.


John is the author of several books notably The Original Body ( 2015) and Deeper Still (2020) He runs ongoing courses for teachers interested in deepening their experience.
