If you are interested in learning how to practice well, and experience the huge benefits of regular yoga practice, these intensive courses may be for you. Many of our best students and future teachers started with these courses and took them for many years. We have students taking these courses from California, Colorado, Florida, & Illinois. See details just below.
Starting in 2021 we switched to 2 SEPARATE COURSES for the 5:30am and 7:00am immersion. See the descriptions of the levels for the 5:30am & 7:00am immersions starting in 2022. Besides immersions, we have 6-9 week, once a week courses that you can take either in studio or live online. Slower yoga is on Friday nights at 7pm is a slower version of Iyengar Yoga. Foundational courses, sometimes referred to as beginning courses meet on Mondays at 4:30pm, Tuesdays at 6pm, and Thursdays at 6:00pm. We have Continuing yoga on Wednesday nights at 6pm and Continuing and Intermediate yoga on Mondays at 6pm. See information and registration for these classes below.
Experience the Power of Daily Practice. THE 3-5 WEEK IMMERSION. IT IS THE MOST POWERFUL YOGA EXPERIENCE WE OFFER. FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO LEARN HOW TO PRACTICE HIGH QUALITY YOGA AND WANT TO IMPROVE. THE 3-5-WEEK COURSE INCLUDES COURSE 1 AND COURSE 2, BOTH 2-WEEK COURSES.
The first 2-weeks starting SEPTEMBER 6YH, 2022 for the 5:30am-6:45 time slot, and starting on SEPTEMBER 6TH at 7:00am-8:30am is for those new to Iyengar yoga, those new to yoga, those returning to yoga or returning to Iyengar yoga practice, And those who are not yet practicing on their own. The foundational and fundamental poses are taught and the daily practice prepares students to take the course 2 which begins again right after the 2-week foundational class ends In the 2-week, course 2, the pace is faster and poses are held longer than in level 1. Shoulderstand with blankets is introduced and practiced regularly along with many of the standing and seated poses. The sequence of practice continues to change and evolve in the course 2, 2-week courses(weeks 3 and 4 of the 4-week immersion)
The 2-week course 2 starts on SEPTEMBER 6TH for the 5:30am course and on SEPTEMBER 6TH for the 7:00am course. It is for those who have taken the course 1 in 2021 or 2022, or have a good background in Iyengar yoga. Course 2 is more demanding, and requires the skills learned in doing the basic poses taught in the course 1 immersion courses. Course 2 features a wider range of poses, standing and seated, and inverted.Please do not sign up for a Course 2 Immersion without having first taken a course 1 immersion or without recent regular Iyengar Yoga Practice
