About Our Classes

Yoga means meditation. It is one of the six traditional darśanas (“mirrors”) in which one sees the true nature of the Self: clear, joyful and transcendent.

Iyengar Yoga uses the finite body-mind as a doorway into this inner sanctuary.´

As part of this process, students are taught to be “in the present moment” during class. It can be challenging to cultivate a meditative consciousness and also deeply nourishing. As my teacher often says, “when the mind is present inside the body, that is a spiritual practice.”

All bodies are finite and, therefore, subject to limitations (ie, general stiffness, joint issues, etc). Certified Iyengar Yoga Teachers are skilled at encouraging students to go beyond their perceived limitations and also adept at providing general adaptations to the postures being taught or alternative options when needed.

If you are unsure which class is the best fit for you please contact us at info@iyengaryogalehighvalley.com.

Attending class twice per week is most beneficial and highly suggested, although not always possible.

Home practice is essential to progress…fifteen minutes a day can make a big difference in the quality of your outer and inner life. We have resources that will encourage and inspire you to make Yoga a part of your daily life.

If this is what you are seeking, we are here to share with you what we have learned from Yoga and all that Yoga has to teach you.

In Peace,
Holly
