Iyengar Yoga with Vanita

Iyengar Yoga with Vanita Small, friendly classes in Iyengar Yoga – taught in Far Bletchley. Ultimately the postures or "asanas" can be experienced as a form of meditation in action.

Small, friendly classes in Iyengar Yoga – taught online and in person in Milton Keynes and Ampthill. Iyengar yoga focuses on the correct alignment of the body in yoga postures in order to get the maximum benefit from them. It works the mind as well as the body and is great for improving posture, concentration and co-ordination and increasing your self-awareness, or overall body intelligence. It’s a very accessible form of yoga and your innate flexibility (or lack of it) is irrelevant. Iyengar teachers are rigorously trained to provide clear demonstrations, detailed instructions and effective teaching points which help an individual to practice safely, whatever their current ability level.

“In each asana, if the contact between the body and the floor-the foundation-is good, the asana will be performed well. Always watch your base: Be attentive to the portion nearest the ground. Correct first from the root. The standing poses are meant to begin providing this foundation for life. They strengthen the ankles and the knees. When a person is mentally disturbed or dejected, you'll notice he can't stand firmly on his feet. These postures teach one how to stand straight so that the brain can float in its position. Feet are like the root of a tree.
If one can't stand properly on one's feet, one develops a negative attitude toward life, and one's yoga too becomes unsteady. These postures help one to maintain stability in times of difficulty and even when catastrophes occur. When stability becomes a habit, maturity and clarity follow. Stability requires balance.”

“One has to find the median line of each asana so that the energy is properly distributed. When one wavers from the median line, then one goes either to the past or the future. Vertical ascending is the future; vertical descending is the past. The horizontal is the present. The present is the perfect asana. When you open horizontally, the future and past meet in the present. This is how dynamic extension and expansion allow you to find balance and live more fully in the present through your body. In asana, we find balance and integration in the three dimensions of space, but we also find balance and integration in the fourth dimension of time.”
