Iyengar Yoga

Iyengar Yoga is rooted in the teachings of B.K.S. Iyengar, offering a unique and contemporary interpretation of classical Hatha Yoga as outlined in the ancient text, The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali (over 2000 years old).

What sets Iyengar Yoga apart from other styles is:

  • Precise, detailed instruction: This emphasis on clear teacher instruction along with attention to detail and alignment helps bring the body into healthy balance while harmonising the mind with the physical body.

  • Use of props: Items like blankets, bricks, bolsters, and belts make yoga accessible and safe for all body types and ages, regardless of injury or ailment.

  • Rigorous teacher training: Iyengar Yoga maintains high standards for accreditation, teacher training and ongoing teacher development.
