About Iyengar yoga
Iyengar Yoga was developed through the pioneering work of B.K.S. Iyengar. A typical Iyengar yoga class focuses on precision of movement, correct alignment, and the study of asanas to enter a state of concentration. Breathing awareness is emphasized in every asana in order to deepen the experience. Through consistent practise the student overcomes his or her physical and mental/emotional limits and develops a deep awareness of the body, power, control, patience and physical and mental harmony. During classes different groups of asanas will be proposed to the students; the class will always start with the invocation to Patanjali or the chanting of Aum, and finish with relaxation.
