About

IYENGAR YOGA

Profound, intelligent, and transformative, Iyengar Yoga is for every age, body type, and fitness level. Iyengar Yoga provides practical tools to create and maintain bodily health and vitality, mental clarity, emotional serenity, and spiritual well-being. Developed by B.K.S. Iyengar during his more than 75 years of teaching, Iyengar Yoga is grounded in the ancient Indian tradition and philosophy of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras.

Our teachers are rigorously trained and dedicated. Our classes focus on strength and stamina, flexibility and balance, concentration and meditation in action – our method is a pathway to complete alignment.

What Iyengar Yoga Offers

  • A safe, systematic and intelligent progression of study to develop each student’s skills and abilities, within each class and from class to class.
  • Certified teachers, highly-qualified and rigorously-trained, with a deep commitment to excellence in teaching.
  • A highly-developed teaching methodology including clear demonstration of the postures, precise use of language and specific instructions to develop students’ understanding and intelligent action in practice.
  • Sequencing of the postures that helps students develop strength and flexibility, stamina and concentration, and correct body alignment.
