YOGA STYLES

Iyengar yoga: B.K.S. Iyengar is the most outstanding name in yoga today. At 81 years of age, he still practices yoga daily. He is the author of many books and has taught his method to thousands of people including many celebrities. His pupil, the world-famous violonist Yehudi Manuhin called him "my best violin teacher" when Mr. Iyengar helped him restore movement to a frozen shoulder. The Iyengar style of yoga places great emphasis on correct alignment, it is vigorous, yet can be adapted to all levels of ability, and props are often used to get the greatest benefit from the postures.

Anusara yoga is a new form of hatha yoga developed by John Friend. He is one of the most well-versed and in demand hatha yoga teachers in Norh America and the producer of two highly acclaimed yoga videos. One of his early teachers was Mr. Iyengar. His seriously playful style of yoga integrates universal principles of alignment , the art of inner body awareness, and the celebration of the heart. Anusara means "to be in the flow", "to follow your heart".
