Iyengar Yoga is a popular style of yoga based on the teachings of contemporary Indian yoga master B.K.S. Iyengar.
The method emphasises precision and alignment. Teachers of this style understand the practical and therapeutic effects of the yoga poses.
This knowledge is used to create tailored and coherent sequences that impart specific physical and mental benefits. In order to help each student find the proper alignment, an Iyengar studio will stock a wide variety of props – blocks, blankets, straps, chairs, bolsters.
Kundalini yoga was brought to a western audience in 1968 by Yogi Bhajan. Kundalini yoga is to awaken the kundalini energy, which lies coiled, serpent-like, at the base of the spine.
Kundalini yoga is an uplifting blend of spiritual and physical practices, which incorporates movement, breathing techniques, meditation, and the chanting of mantras.
The goal of Kundalini Yoga is to awaken and move energy at the base of your spine, build physical vitality and increase consciousness.
All are welcome, no matter what your level of fitness or age.

Hatha yoga is a generic term that refers to any type of yoga that teaches physical postures. Nearly every type of western yoga class is Hatha yoga, and it generally means a basic introduction to the most popular yoga postures. If you are starting to exercise for the first time (or after a long break) or have already lost significant muscle tone and flexibility, you should start with a gentle Hatha class. You most likely won’t work up a sweat, but you should leave class feeling longer, looser and more relaxed.
Vinyasa yoga is one of the most energetic forms of yoga. The classes will move smoothly from pose to pose, and there is emphasis on the control of breath and less restorative at the end of class.
