Iyengar yoga is a skillful practice that guides the individual toward an experience of wholeness. The path begins with the learning of asanas which strengthen and firm the body, focus the mind, and still the spirit. The practitioner discovers an inner balance and sense of well-being. |
There are three distinguishing characteristics in Iyengar yoga:
1. A strong emphasis is put on alignment so that health and well-being is maintained. 2. Various sequences of asanas are given to arrive at particular outcomes. 3. The duration of the asanas is related to the desired outcome and to individual requirements. |
