Iyengar yoga is precise, deep and transformative, suitable for all ages and mobility types. During the āsana sequences, ropes, blankets, wooden blocks, chairs and other aids can be used to facilitate what Iyengar called “meditation in action”. B.K.S. Iyengar developed a safe, finely tuned and creative system of practice that allows the practitioner to progress not only in āsana and pranayama (physical and breathing exercises), but also to come into contact with a practical and holistic philosophy that brings body and mind into harmony and allows us to experience a more subtle and deeper state of consciousness.
