Before starting Iyengar yoga, I was used to moving my body through different activities, but I wasn’t very aware of how I was actually moving. I didn’t notice where my feet, hands or other parts of my body were in space.
Iyengar yoga taught me to pay attention to these small details. Over time, this awareness became part of my everyday life too — how I stand, walk and move.
In my classes, especially for beginners, I want to share this way of practising: learning to notice and understand your body rather than simply trying to get into a pose. Yoga also teaches us to accept that our body is different every day. Some days a pose feels possible, and some days it simply doesn’t — and that’s part of the practice too.
