Darbella and I have always done some form of Eastern physical practice - Ninjitsu, Tai Chi, Ki Gong, whatever. Back in September, a friend suggested we check out her yoga class. We’d done some yoga back in 1987, and we loved it, so off we went to a beginner’s class.
Not that it means much, but I’d never heard of the style before. Iyengar yoga was an eye-opener. Named after guruji Iyengar, it’s “yoga with props.” The props are used to get you into the correct position. We absolutely love the class, and the instructor Fay Gascho, is amazing.
You can get a good description of this style here.
Class is this evening, and I woke up with a stiff lower back. As it turned out, the cosmos provided. I subscribe to a daily e-zine from Yoga Journal, which had a decided Iyengar slant. Today’s article was on yoga positions for stretching at work. I gave them a try, and poof! My back feels better. Check it out here.
