IYENGAR YOGA

Iyengar Yoga is named for yoga master B.K.S. IYENGAR (1918 – 2014). Called the “Michelangelo of yoga” and named one of Time Magazine’s 100 most influential people in 2004, Mr. Iyengar has been acknowledged as a modern master of yoga.

Iyengar Yoga is firmly rooted in the traditional eight limbs of yoga, as expounded by Patanjali in his classic treatise, The Yoga Sutras. The Iyengar practice method emphasizes the cultivation of self-knowledge primarily through Asana (yoga postures) and Pranayama (yogic breathing). In addition, attention is given to developing alignment, balance, strength, stamina, flexibility, concentration, and keen awareness. 

Students of Iyengar Yoga are instructed on how to practice and are encouraged to develop their home practice. Iyengar Yoga offers a clear and grounded path to the holistic health of body, mind, and spirit.
