In the same way you went to see a bike fitter, I would see a qualified yoga instructor.
Most people are pretty poor at self assessing form during exercise and proprioception is often pretty bad too. You want someone to teach you good form from the beginning rather than having to unlearn bad habits later.
Go to a decent instructor Rebecca @Bogue is one I would suggest. Otherwise go to the Iyengar Centre in Maida Vale. Iyengar yoga is not dynamic (you are a fucking cyclist so should not have to worry about cardio!) it concentrates on postures, and alignment and you can then apply the same principles on the bike.
I also teach yoga, and specialise in working with cyclists but visit London intermittently.
