What is Iyengar Yoga? The system of yoga known as Iyengar Yoga was created and developed over 75 years ago by Yogacharya B.K.S. Iyengar. Mr. Iyengar devoted his life to the evolution of his approach to yoga, based on the traditional eight limbs of yoga taught over 2500 years ago by the sage Patanjali. Mr. Iyengar believed that yoga goes beyond being a physical discipline- it is also an art, a science, and a philosophy, which he developed with this in mind. Yoga is accessible for all ages and all body types. It is known for its focus on precision and timing and the use of props designed by Mr. Iyengar that help the practitioner achieve perfection in any asana. Regular practice of Iyengar Yoga integrates the body, mind, and emotions. Iyengar Yoga is a powerful and sophisticated discipline that can be practiced in all stages of life. The benefits are far-reaching and will assist the practitioner in every aspect of daily living. (iynaus.org)
