"In this pose the hamstring and abductor muscles are fully developed, while blood is made to flow to the trunk and the head. People who cannot do Sirsasana can benefit from this pose, which increases digestive powers."

―B.K.S. Iyengar, Light on Yoga

The video above is 4 minutes long, but the original short is 21 minutes and 53 seconds long.

''Change is not something that we should fear. Rather, it is something that we should welcome. For without change, nothing in this world would ever grow or blossom, and no one in this world would ever move forward to become the person they're meant to be.'' ― B.K.S. Iyengar

It's easy to get used to attending a regular weekly class, but it can sometimes prevent us from embracing changes that encourage growth.

If you've been attending Beginners classes for two years, we recommend our Moving up Workshop: Beginners to General

This workshop will give you the opportunity to practice at a General level in a friendly, supportive session alongside other beginner students.
