Iyengar Yoga is a yoga designed for everybody no matter their age, or physical fitness level. It is known for its focus on exact sequences, proper timing, and the use of props to get into and make positions more accessible for any skill level.
Iyengar Yoga was created over 75 years ago by BKS Iyengar and is based on the traditional eight limbs of yoga. It is particularly known for the use of props as Iyengar used to use bricks, sand bags, and other items to help students experience the full range of motion in asanas. Iyengar focuses on three main aspects alignement, sequence, and timing. Alignment of the body, sequence and order of postures, and timing where asanas are tend to be held for longer periods of time in comparison with some other yoga types.
