Iyengar Yoga is the world’s most widely practised method of yoga. It was taught by Yogacharya Sri B.K.S. Iyengar of Pune, India. Born on December 14, 1918, in Bellur, India, he studied and practised yoga continuously for over 85 years. B K.S. Iyengar is universally acknowledged as the world’s greatest yoga teacher.

His first major work, published in 1966, titled 'Light on Yoga', became a bible for hundreds of thousands of people who practice the Iyengar method.

This style of teaching yoga is now being followed by certified teachers across the world.

Iyengar Yoga is based on the in-depth practise of asana, the postures and of pranayama or 'yogic breathing'.
