This ongoing program is for serious students with an interest in developing a better understanding of Iyengar Yoga. Bring greater depth and breadth to your yoga practice by studying all eight limbs of yoga—not just asana. Meeting eight times per year, we’ll discuss key concepts from the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, sequencing and practice of asana, and anatomy and physiology as it applies to yoga practice. Topics and readings will be assigned beforehand to help enrich our discussions.

Iyengar Yoga Studies is offered each quarter throughout the year. Students may join at the beginning of any quarter. For greater continuity and to enhance the learning process and community development, students are encouraged to participate on an ongoing basis.

According to a study in the journal Spine (Sept. 1, 2009) yoga can reduce pain and improve function in people with chronic back pain. In this workshop, participants will learn the postures recommended by B.K.S. Iyengar for the treatment of back pain and will practice in a supportive environment that welcomes everyone regardless of their experience and physical condition.

Roberto began his practice of yoga as a result of a low back injury. “My goal is to help you deal with chronic back pain and build a practice that can last a lifetime.”

This workshop is open to ALL LEVELS!
