“Backbends are to be felt more than expressed. The other postures can be expressed and then felt. But in backbends, like meditations, the person has to feel."

―B.K.S. Iyengar

Why do we repeat the same sequence?

In Iyengar Yoga, repetition is not accidental.
It is intentional.

The first time you perform a sequence,
you establish the form.

You place the foot.
You lift the arm.
You manage the block.

The action is done—
but not yet understood.

The second time, something changes.

You begin to feel:
Which shoulder is closing.
Which elbow is bending.
Where the breath shortens.

This is where practice begins.

The difference is subtle, but decisive:
Performance asks:
Did I complete the pose?

Practice asks:
What did I observe?

Repeating the basics is not a step backward.
It is the moment
when the body begins to speak
and the practitioner begins to listen.

💬 When you repeat a pose—Are you doing it again…
or are you seeing something new?
