"When I practice, I am a philosopher, when I teach
I am a scientist, when I demonstrate, I am an artist."
Yogacharya B.K.S.Iyengar (Guruji)

Iyengar Yoga
Yoga is an ancient science and philosophy of life based on
the belief that health and peace of mind comes from within.
It is a holistic experience that benefits body, mind, and
spirit and is designed for every level of ability, age,
and physical condition. The poses in the Iyengar method
are done with precise alignment focusing on development
of strength, stamina, increased range of movement, stability
and increased concentration.
With yoga becoming so popular around the world, many people
new to yoga are somewhat confused as to all the different
methods on yoga. The Kelowna Yoga House is an Iyengar Studio.
Here are some websites linking to the Iyengar Website in
India and both Canadian and American Iyengar Associations.
