Safety is paramount in Iyengar yoga
At the start of every class please mention any medical conditions or injuries that may affect your ability to participate in the class. Your teacher wants to ensure that you are able to take part in the class without any risk of injury. Where necessary, some students may be given variations or alternative poses to practise.
Your teacher will demonstrate the shape of the postures before you try the pose for yourself. This visual learning is an important element of the Iyengar yoga teaching method. So take time to observe, and feel free to move from your mat to move closer and get a clearer view of the demonstration.
At the end of each course session there is time to ask the teacher any questions you may have about Iyengar yoga and what you have learned in class. Work at your own pace and if you need to release a pose, do so.

“I felt huge improvements regarding circulation and over all well-being”
“Excellent teaching. Clear, patient and fun. I really enjoyed the style of yoga”
Your 6 week programme
Week 1
The teacher will introduce you to the Iyengar yoga method and the studios. You will practice some standing postures and be introduced to the experience of creating stability in the feet and legs. You will learn about the concept of alignment in the standing postures.
Week 2
You will try some new postures including a shoulder opener and a pose that helps prepare the shoulders for shoulder stand. In the standing poses, you will learn how a familiar posture can be practised in different ways to improve specific actions.
Week 3
You will try balancing in a posture and learn how to prepare for shoulder stand. In Iyengar yoga the inverted poses, shoulder stand and head stand are very important. These are introduced with a clear and methodical approach. It is more important to practice the preparation correctly than attempt the final pose.
Week 4
Some sitting and forward bending poses which develop flexibility of the knee and hip joints will be introduced. Your teacher will also give you more information about the practice of Savasana, corpse pose, the final posture of every Iyengar yoga class.
Week 5
Shoulder opening postures help you to experience the connection between the work of the shoulders and the lifting and opening of the chest. This lifting and opening action is important in many of the postures you will practice in this class.
Week 6
This week you will try two standing postures with a forward orientation and the back foot turned in deeply. There is also an opportunity to try shoulder stand against the wall if you and your teacher agree that you are ready for you to try it. At the end of class your teacher will suggest how you can build on what you’ve learned over the six week course.
