The Sanskrit word Yog, means to join or yoke. Yoga practice is a means to make oneself whole by training the mind and uncovering the profound core of being.  It is a blend of body poses (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayama), and meditation (dhyana). 

Iyengar® yoga is a form of hatha yoga (physical) developed by master BKS Iyengar, the most influential teacher of yoga in the world (www.bksiyengar.com).  Poses are explored with a careful and precise alignment to understand the living architecture of the body.  Progressive, safe and profoundly transformative, Iyengar® yoga builds inner strength and stamina, flexibility and balance, concentration and meditation.
