Iyengar Yoga is a style of yoga created by B.K.S Iyengar. It’s an alignment based practice and gives specific instructions and modifications for the students to be able to feel comfortable in each pose.
This type of practice develops and cultivates strength, endurance, stability, awareness, and flexibility while emphasizing correct body alignment in each posture.
The specific use of props such as blankets, blocks, belts, and even the wall will help individualize and modify the asana according to the student’s need, and therefore has a therapeutic effect for the practitioner.
