Iyengar Yoga is a holistic yoga method that focuses on body alignment, details and deep awareness. Developed by BKS Iyengar, this system aims to make poses (asana) accessible and sustainable for everyone, considering the different needs of each body.

Practice supported by auxiliary materials such as blocks, belts, and blankets allows for staying in postures for longer periods of time, safely exploring the limits of the body, and developing physical intelligence.

Iyengar Yoga is not just a physical practice; with patience, attention and regular repetition, it creates a deep connection between body, mind and breath. This journey builds strength and flexibility, as well as mental clarity, inner balance and silence.

This method, suitable for all ages and body types, encourages working with anatomical sensitivity, sensing the body, and transforming yoga practice into a field of inner exploration. Iyengar Yoga offers a state of balance and awareness that goes beyond the body with a disciplined yet compassionate approach.
