The Iyengar method of yoga is progressive and methodical with an emphasis on correct alignment and safety.
When necessary, students will use props to allow them to progress in an asana safely and to their ability. Beginners will first work in a basic way on simple postures and as they develop, then move on to more refined ways of working and to more complex postures.
Iyengar yoga is suitable for everyone, regardless of age, ability, body shape, or flexibility. It can help you overcome and prevent many stresses, strains, aches, and pains. Regular practice can also help you to relax and will energise the body and mind, bringing vitality, flexibility, strength, concentration, self-confidence, and mental calm.
