Iyengar Yoga

Iyengar Yoga is a total health discipline based on the practice of yoga poses (asanas) and breath awareness (pranayama). The Iyengar method emphasizes proper alignment, making the practice safe, intelligent, and challenging. Practicing yoga with true alignment focuses the mind and develops balance, strength, and flexibility in the body.

Iyengar Yoga is regarded as the most sophisticated style of yoga today, and praised for its ability to help specific medical problems, both structural and organic. Teachers of Iyengar Yoga must train under supervision for a minimum of 3 years and pass rigorous tests in practice, teaching skills, medical applications, and philosophy.
