Iyengar yoga is a form of yoga that emphasizes precision and alignment in postures. It was developed by B.K.S. Iyengar in the 20th century and has gained popularity worldwide. Iyengar yoga uses props such as blocks, straps, and blankets to help practitioners achieve correct alignment in poses and to accommodate individual needs and limitations.
It is known for its attention to detail, sequencing, and use of props. Iyengar yoga can be beneficial for improving posture, strength, flexibility, and balance. It is also helpful for those with injuries or physical limitations. Iyengar yoga is a rigorous and challenging practice, but its emphasis on precision and alignment makes it accessible to all levels of practitioners.
