In The Yoga Sutras, Patanjali wrote about eight steps towards spiritual fulfillment. Iyengar Yoga guides students along this journey of Ashtanga Yoga in a way that's practical, experiential, and intensely personal.
Yoga is union--the union of mind, body, and spirit. In
Iyengar Yoga, this search for union begins with ongoing practice of the yoga postures. In time students learn to penetrate beyond the outer, physical layers (kosas) to the inner layers of mind, energy, and spirit.
B.K.S. Iyengar's unique perspective, the yoga asanas and pranayama (breath control) allow us to explore the higher limbs of yoga, including true meditation and even Samadhi, the complete freedom that is the end of the yogic journey.
