About
Iyengar yoga is the world’s most widely practised method of yoga and originates from the teachings of B.K.S Iyengar (1918-2014).
Yoga practice relaxes and energises the body and mind and brings vitality, flexibility, strength, concentration, self-confidence and mental calm. Iyengar yoga is suitable for all types of people and all levels of fitness.
The system of teaching is methodical and progressive, emphasising detailed correctness and absolute safety. When necessary, it uses supports called ‘props’ that allow students to progress in their practice of postures safely at their own pace, to suit their body. Beginners work in a basic way on simple postures according to their capabilities. As they develop they then move on to more refined ways of working as well as to more complex postures.
All Iyengar yoga teachers are trained to rigorously high standards. The Certification Mark is the guarantee of this quality.
