Celebrating the Birth of a Yoga Legend: B.K.S. Iyengar

On this day, we honor the legacy of B.K.S. Iyengar, one of the most influential yoga masters of our time, whose teachings have shaped the way the world practices yoga. Born on December 14, 1918, in Bellur, India, Iyengar's journey from a fragile, sickly child to a beacon of health and wisdom serves as a testament to the transformative power of yoga.

Known for his development of Iyengar Yoga, B.K.S. Iyengar revolutionized the practice by emphasizing precision, alignment, and the use of props to make yoga accessible to everyone, regardless of age, ability, or background. His profound understanding of anatomy, coupled with a deep spiritual connection to the practice, created a method that integrates body, mind, and spirit in a harmonious flow.

Through his books, especially Light on Yoga, Light on Pranayama, and Light on the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, Iyengar's teachings have touched millions around the world, inspiring students to find balance, strength, and peace within themselves. His work continues to be a living, breathing legacy for future generations of practitioners.

Today, let’s take a moment to reflect on the countless lives B.K.S. Iyengar has touched, and express our gratitude for his dedication to spreading the wisdom of yoga. His commitment to sharing the gift of yoga with all is a reminder that the journey is just as important as the destination.

🙏 Happy Birthday, Guruji! May your light continue to shine, guiding us toward deeper understanding, compassion, and inner peace. ✨

In honor of Geeta Iyengar’s extraordinary life and enduring contributions to Iyengar Yoga. Geetaji dedicated her life to studying, practicing, and teaching yoga, shaping the path for countless practitioners worldwide. Though she refrained from celebrating her birthday in her lifetime, instead dedicating the day to the memory and legacy of her father, B.K.S. Iyengar, this year, we come together to pay tribute to her profound impact on the yoga community and beyond.

Geeta Iyengar dedicated over four decades to teaching at the Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute (RIMYI) in Pune, India, where her work profoundly influenced the global understanding and practice of Iyengar Yoga. Her landmark book, Yoga: A Gem for Women, empowered women to embrace yoga as a transformative practice and remains a cornerstone. Geetaji’s literary contributions, including Preliminary Course, Intermediate Course, and the five volumes of Yoga Shastra, continue to guide and inspire students worldwide. Her teaching seamlessly integrated the therapeutic potential of yoga with its deeper spiritual essence, illuminating the path for generations of practitioners.

Happy birthday Prashant 🙏

"His modesty and humility are evident
in everything he says. His memory and ability to collect facts are almost superhuman. How can anyone retain so much information? His sense of humour is like no other. It can be hilarious but never bitter or sarcastic."

His impact and influence in my life was phenomenal. I cannot thank him enough in any other way except to continue teaching what I learned from him, and spreading his wisdom and method of practicing yoga, which my students and so many others around the world benefit from.
