Скачать или смотреть Week 20: Learning and Practicing Iyengar Yoga for Beginners

I feel quite a sense of accomplishment in posting the practice sequence for week 20!! I started this video series on July 28th 2023, with the intention to create a set of videos following Geetaji weekly sequential asana practice to introduce Iyengar Yoga to a beginner.

In doing these videos I have learnt a lot. It is a gradual path of practice with consistent effort that yields the fruits of yoga. I apologize for not keeping to a weekly posting of videos as planned at the beginning. I am however grateful to have come so far. This is a 28 week course, so only 8 more videos to complete the course.

Please note that women who are menstruating should not do the inversions or abdominal contracting asanas such as Navasana. In addition if you are not an Iyengar Yoga practitioner and have any neck, shoulder, high pressure issues please skip these asanas. Instead you may do Setu Bandha Sarvangasana.
