Om evenemanget

Iyengar Yoga is a physical , powerful form of yoga with exercises and yoga postures (asanas) that are performed very carefully. The focus in Iyengar Yoga is to perform the postures correctly based on the body's anatomy and physical conditions. As a Iyengar Yoga teacher, I have gone through a solid education. I have learned to give instructions that suit the student's needs and how to observe the practice of the yoga postures and correct, when needed.
In Iyengar Yoga there is no competition , no competition elements and no prestige. It is up to you to decide how much your body can handle, and what you can do. Anyone can perform Iyengar Yoga, regardless of age, yoga skills and physical condition.
During a lesson, I work based on the individual's own conditions. Anatomical alignment and, above all, posture are important. Each position is reviewed carefully and implemented relatively slowly. You stay in the position and some movements repeat for best effect. I use simple aids such as blocks, belts and blankets to be able to perform the positions as correctly as possible. That is, stretch fully to get as much space inside the body as possible with maximum regard to the body's anatomy. Through a refined system of hundreds of positions, you achieve great awareness of the body's posture and straight lines. You train strength, endurance, agility and balance, as well as concentration and meditation.
Ayurvedic massage, diagnostics, lectures on health food and other goodies will also be offered.
