Carrie Owerko – Iyengar Yoga 101

Carrie Owerko is a Senior Intermediate Iyengar teacher. She will talk about Iyengar Yoga in a new light. You will learn to integrate B.K.S. Iyengar’s therapeutic methods into your practice. If you want to improve your teaching skills or add more integrity to your flow, this course is for you.

This is Iyengar 101. Carrie is here to take you on an adventure into the world of Iyengar yoga. I want to demystify this practice and show you a few of the principles that BKS Iyengar brought to yoga. Iyengar transformed himself through his yoga practice. He had an adventurous spirit. He was a beginner and a master at the same time. He spent a lot of time trying to perfect his system of yoga. Iyengar Yoga has a reputation of being rigid and sometimes unforgiving, but it is at its core playful, experimental, and adaptive. I know that once you incorporate Iyengar’s spirit and principles into your regular yoga practice or teaching, you will feel more spacious, balanced, and free than you have felt in years.

As you travel on your journey of transformation, this practice can provide helpful tools. The tools include:

• Learning how to think outside the box, shift your perspective, and bring a sense of play and possibility to your yoga, and life
• How to find aha moments in every practice
• Practical modifications and adaptations for dozens of yoga poses so that you can expand your practice; help your students (if you teach) with clear, tailored instruction; and start to heal emotional and physical pain and discomfort
• Experimenting with your unique sense of balance and center of gravity so you can refine adaptations and make poses even more accessible and beneficial
• How to navigate the balance between effort and ease
• How to find and practice integrity on and off the mat
• Pose modifications that will help you feel truly integrated, infusing your practice, and life, with meaning

You will see your world expand before your eyes when you learn the fun, surprising side of Iyengar Yoga.
