This Giving Tuesday, we wanted to share a message from one of our longtime students.

“Anyone else here who can say “Iyengar yoga saved my life!”? I just spoke with two people today who told me this. I couldn’t agree more. It has gotten me through emotional challenges and physical challenges, like a knee injury. It’s the reason I can be present, have less anxiety, can take a pause and let go of things I can’t control… The teachers are the best-trained in the world. And it transforms lives. SO, first, check out an Iyengar yoga class near you (or even online). Second, please consider donating.” ~ Chandra L.
