About the Studio
Santosha Yoga classes are based on the teachings of yoga master B.K.S. Iyengar. Classes are sequenced in this tradition to promote stability in both body and mind by building skill with understanding. This total approach ensures that students progress from posture to posture, and class to class. Beginning with basic techniques students learn how the postures can build health, strength and coping mechanisms for life.
Following the Iyengar tradition,
we sequence classes in a four-week rotation.
Week One:
Standing Poses
Strength develops in the legs, improving stability and balance. We learn to be grounded while achieving lightness. Both pelvic and shoulder girdles become open.
Week Two:
Forward Bends and Twists
Forward bends bring quietness to blood pressure and brain. Muscles on the back body from calves to upper shoulders lengthen, relieving tension in the spine. Twisting poses increase the flexibility in the torso, and massage the inner organs.
Week Three:
Back Bends
Muscles of the back strengthen, the spine becomes more flexible, posture improves. Courage and confidence increase as the chest opens.
Week Four:
Pranayama and Restorative
Preparatory poses open the lungs, allowing deeper focused breathing. Supported poses help relax and quieten the nervous system.
“Balance in the body is the foundation for balance in life”
