Welcome
Yoga allows you to find a new kind of freedom that you may not have known even existed.
– BKS Iyengar
There are times when your life feels out of rhythm, out of step with yourself and your surroundings. Practicing Iyengar yoga can assist you in becoming centered. Iyengar yoga is an integrative system that teaches strategies to quell the restlessness in your body and mind. Yoga promotes mindfulness of the inward and outward worlds. It disciplines the body, mind, intellect, emotions and will.
Through sustaining practices of Iyengar yoga, it is possible to gain insight into every aspect of your life. Align to Awaken is a starting point for embarking on a soul-awakening path and a training ground to becoming more self aware.
Yoga teaches us to cure what need not be endured and endure what cannot be cured.
– BKS Iyengar
