I haven’t heard of that! Please tell us more.

Yes!! I took a few Iyengar classes and it was my favorite type of yoga. I don’t know much, but I recall using props to help learn the proper form of the poses. It was very eye opening as I learned a lot about the integrity of the movement. I do and teach Pilates, so I loved this method as it was similar to alignment and form in Pilates. Would love to hear more!

Yes! I practiced Iyengar for years, but then moved to a different city and Covid happened. I still practice at home, but dang I miss my teacher and her rope wall.

I love Iyengar. Personally, I'm more of a flow gal (Vinyasa and Ashtanga), but Iyengar is so good for precision and learning detailed alignment. You get strong in ways you never imagined. Just standing in Mountain Pose! There's some amazing Iyengar leaders offering online classes, but you will likely need some props.
