Our Classes
Classes Run on a Four Week Semester
Classes run on a four week semester. The last week of the month is restorative/pranayama (supported poses plus the breathing practice). Students are encouraged to attend regularly to build their knowledge and ability throughout the semesters and to start a home practice.
As students progress in the awareness of the body and ability to activate and awaken, they can then move to a more advanced class. Starting in level 1 is best to receive the foundation of this tradition of Yoga.
Foundations/Level I
A slower paced class where the teacher takes extra care in adapting postures to individual needs. This is an excellent choice if you are cautious about yoga because of health concerns. You will learn the foundations of Iyengar Yoga which can be carried into all classes and a personal practice. You are welcome to contact Nesta to discuss your specific needs and any questions you may have.
Level I
Participants learn a variety of asanas that build strength, stability and increase flexibility. This course is recommended for first time students and those who are new to the Iyengar method. A variety of asansas are introduced including the basics of Sarvangasana (shoulderstand) or alternatives where needed. It is recommended that participants spend at least six months of regular practice at this level before moving on.
Level II
You have developed confidence and concentration along with understanding the basic poses. You have become aware of your limitations, how to work with them and are ready to expand in additional asanas. You know what inversions are accessible for you.
