About Iyengar Yoga Practice 🧘‍♀️

Iyengar yoga is a methodical and deeply refined approach to yoga developed by B.K.S. Iyengar. This practice stands out in the yoga world for its extraordinary attention to anatomical detail and precision in the yoga asanas (postures).

Key Benefits of Iyengar Yoga:

• Precise Alignment: Learn to align your body properly to maximize benefits and prevent injury
• Prop Usage: Utilizes props like blocks, straps, and bolsters to help practitioners achieve proper alignment
• Sequenced Learning: Poses are taught in a progressive sequence, building strength, flexibility and understanding
• Extended Holds: Postures are typically held longer than in other yoga styles, allowing deeper awareness
• Therapeutic Applications: Techniques can be modified to help with rehabilitation and specific physical conditions

Our Level 3 classes are designed for those with good mobility and yoga experience. While challenging, these sessions provide comprehensive instruction that builds body awareness, strength, and flexibility. The rehabilitative aspects of Iyengar yoga make it particularly valuable for those recovering from injuries or managing chronic conditions under proper guidance.

Iyengar yoga is known for its methodical approach and emphasis on correct anatomical alignment. Regular practice can improve posture, balance, coordination, and mental focus while developing a deeper understanding of how your body works. The mindfulness cultivated through precise alignment creates a moving meditation that connects body and mind.
