Iyengar Yoga
Iyengar Yoga
Iyengar Yoga, founded by B.K.S (1918-2014) Iyengar, is a profound and transformative practice that blends the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of yoga. Known for its meticulous attention to detail, this style emphasizes precise alignment in every posture, allowing practitioners to deepen their understanding of the body and mind.
Props such as blocks, belts, and blankets are integral to Iyengar Yoga, enabling students to experience the benefits of poses regardless of their level of flexibility or strength.
Beyond the physical, Iyengar Yoga is deeply rooted in the philosophy of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, focusing on developing inner awareness, concentration, and the ability to stay present. It’s often regarded as a therapeutic practice, capable of addressing physical and emotional imbalances, promoting overall well-being and harmony.
This method is celebrated not just as a form of exercise, but as a path to self-discovery and holistic health.
