Iyengar Yoga
Yoga is an ancient practice originating in India thousands of years ago which is now very popular throughout the world. Iyengar yoga is named after Mr BKS Iyengar one of the world's foremost yoga masters who has been instrumental in bringing yoga to the west and making yoga accessible to all regardless of age, gender, race or religion.
In this physical practice of yoga the focus on alignment and precison along with specific sequencing including restoratives helps us create a firm foundation for good health and well being. Effecting not just the physical body, yoga can lead to a transformation on the mental, emotional and spiritual body.
Iyengar yoga offers a unique way of taking care of students. It is practical and with the use of props and experienced teaching, students of all ages and abilities can participate.
Certified Iyengar teachers undergo hundreds of hours of training including yoga asanas (postures), pranayama, yoga philosophy and anatomy and physiology. They can offer individual attention and adjustment where required to students who present with injuries or illness.
