In this class, we'll focus on mastering the basics. This methodical approach will build progressively each week. We'll break each pose down into its foundational elements so that we can learn strength, balance, flexibility, and cultivate awareness. We'll use props to support proper alignment. Foundational poses which include standing, seated, forward bends, twists, and some backbends, are key to unlocking more advanced poses. These poses will help strengthen the core, shoulders, and neck in preparation for inversions. This series is aimed towards beginning practitioners but it is open to all, including those new to Iyengar Yoga. Due to the progressive nature of learning, participants are encouraged to sign-up for the whole series, but drop-ins are permitted.
