Iyengar is a traditional yoga developed by Sri B.K.S. Iyengar. This method places special focus on developing strength, endurance and correct body alignment, in addition to flexibility and relaxation. The Iyengar method is recommended for students interested in spending time developing greater awareness of and refinement within each yoga posture.

As the various asanas (postures) are performed, the mind is focused on the actions of the posture and the movement of the breath. This unites the mind, the body and the breath, allowing students to move into a meditative state.
