In classes expect to receive precise and guided instruction for postures that align the body and mind in harmonious movement. Postures - the asana - are adjusted through the use of props and supports to meet the needs of each individual. All classes include deep relaxation. Over time physical benefits are realized in postural improvement, increased strength, tone, flexibility and balance thus one also experiences relief from pain. The attention to precision brings focus and concentration allowing participants to release mental tension and learn how to better deal with the stress of daily life.



These classes are for the Iyengar student who is prepared to embrace the refinement and intensity of deeper asana work. Pranayama (the art of Yogic breath control) is introduced, and there is discussion of yogic philosophy. The student is expected to have level 2 experience.
A gentle supportive approach to Iyengar Yoga that builds strength and stamina, increases range of motion, improves stability and concentration. Relaxation poses are in every class. Props (bolsters, blankets, etc.) are used for ease and accessibility in the poses.
