Forgive my paraphrasing of Zubin's most beautiful teaching but the undercurrent of Friday's class was this: Art reveals hidden potentials. Habit is the opposite of art. Enhance your life with artful practice --- What a gift that these Fridays have been and... we still have one more . --- #iyengaryoga #bksiyengaryoga #bksiyengar #zubin #zubinzarthoshtimanesh #artofyoga... -- #iyengaronline #yogaonline #studiopo #studiopoyoga See more

Those of us with dedicated yoga practices know that time on the mat is important whether life is trucking along as expected or not. Consistency is huge. However, we also know that consistency alone, is not enough. Yoga needs to be RESPONSIVE if we are seeking transformation. When I took Studio Po online, I felt similarly. I wanted to be responsive NOT reactive. I genuinely felt that there were unique PO-ssibilities on the horizon and if I could stretch my understanding of ...what a virtual studio could be, I might reveal hidden PO-tentials for all of us who practice at Po. One of the defining features of virtual Po is that we are a monthly membership. Why? Because when a cohort of students practice together, community develops. The depth of connection that is possible between student and teacher also magnifies. This has helped to translate our Po-ness online . Students are also able to access as many classes AND replays as theyd like. There is no pressure to become a zoom expert or masterful prop innovator. We all ease into the experience together. Students and teachers learn and adapt, together. Not only have schedules been unpredictable during the pandemic but so too peoples mental, emotional, and physical states. Membership allows you not to worry about when classes expire. You can attend classes live-online or on-demand, however/whenever you feel its appropriate. You can practice for 15 minutes or 2 hours. Membership allows you to curate your yoga. Adapting to change with equanimity and PO-ise is surely yoga in action. Ive said before that yoga is about acceptance but its also about becoming. I believe this, wholeheartedly. If you are looking for support, guidance, and the space to INTEGRATE *your* yoga into *your* life, you might like to consider a membership with Studio Po Online. It will require you to break free of the constraints that pay per class necessitates but Im confident that youll find much PO-sitivity awaiting you on the other side . ~ with love, @stephtenceryoga bit.ly/StudioPo-membership See more

I asked @siobhan_ss to describe her new class, Reclaiming Space: Iyengar Yoga for BIPOC and here is what she said: The class is about creating a healing space for those experiencing racialized trauma on a daily basis. Its about cultivating a space for BIPOC to come together and connect without having to be the only person of colour in the room.... Its one way we can address systemic barriers which have excluded BIPOC from predominantly white yoga spaces. Not all BIPOC need this kind of class, but some of us do, so please seek to understand and support those who are in need of this community space. And please be gentle Understanding why BIPOC spaces are needed and important means learning to see through a trauma-informed lens.

Recognizing the links between different asanas is HUGELY beneficial. Why? Because when a pose is challenging, I very often find theres a need to work that pose but in a DIFFERENT asana. Take #sirsasana as an example. If strength in the shoulders is lacking, or if the thought of going upside down is fear-inducing, how much progress can really be made by continuing to force the issue (and besides, wheres the yoga in that)? But.... what if instead of only practicing more and... more sirsasana, you also worked the top arm of #trikonasana as shown here? Do you think it might slowly, eventually, coax you along toward headstand??? Could that maybe be one piece of an obviously more complicated puzzle? Are you following my line of thinking? .

Iyengar Yoga has been a personal boon in so many ways but sometimes, I joke that it has also made life more difficult. In becoming more aware and conscious in my body, I think Im also more attuned (& inevitably aggravated!) by discrepancies . Despite that,the moment when all of a sudden, dullness dissipates andthere isa new sense of alertness, OMG, sooooo gooooooood . Sure, it also feels good when I can do a pose better than before, or maybe accomplish something ph...ysically that I have never done before but what Im attempting to describe is...different. Yoga is not about doing a *fancy* pose (or syllabus), its about awakening what needs to be awakened along the way. Pursuing a challenging pose may provide direction, it may even help tokeep your interestbut as Prashant Iyengar often says, asana was never meant to bean end, only a means! Yoga is ultimately amode of self-inquiry. If you can open up to thepossibility of perpetually moving toward the unknown, I think you will find thatthis practice can invite youyou to learn, grow, expand, twistand turn in incredibly beautiful ways. And who knows, you may find that the skill of embracing the unknown also comes in handy in other areas of your life -- #theartofdetachment #yogagoalsarenotalwaysuseful #personalizeyourpractice #yourpracticeisyourpractice -- Todays Level 2/3 class has been added to the online library.

Has a really small, super nuanced detail ever had an incredibly profound affect on your experience in an asana? For me, this pranayama setup is an example. My experience of Savasana is TRANSFORMED depending on if I begin seated on the floor with my sacrum touching the blankets OR if I start just-just seated on the blankets and adjust my buttocks to *then* arrive on the floor. In the latter, my low back feels supported and secure and in the former, it feels over-arched a...nd vulnerable. I find it fascinating that such a small distinction can be so profound. In life, we are often encouraged to believe that more = better and similarly instructed to go big or go home, but in Yoga I feel a welcome and ever-present reminder of the BEAUTY of SUBTLETY. How much (so much!!!) can be learned, inwardly and outwardly, with enhanced receptivity and sensitivity . --- #iyengaryoga #bksiyengar #studiopo #yogalove #yogaprops #yogaposes #yogastudent #yogastudy #yogateacher #yogaonline #iyengaryogaonline #abhijataiyengar #onlineyoga #yogalife #becurious #pranayama #savasana #practiceyogadaily #certifiediyengaryogateacher #yogavideo #yogaselfpractice #yogareflections #thematismylaboratory #thoughtsfromthemat See more

A random thought to consider: the yoga brick. Sometimes, it's used as support. Its presence can signal areas in the body that are tight or contracted to release and let go.... Other times, the brick can be used to penetrate areas of stiffness. Amazingly, there are also times when this simple prop accomplishes both tasks simultaneously. This is why I Iyengar Yoga. It's inherently non-binary. It's not about right or wrong, this way or that way, rather it teaches us (empowers us!) to reveal the intricacies of our own embodiment. Today's Level 1/2 class was about strengthening your upper back, penetrating into the stiffness, AND recognizing that these two concepts are distinct.

A random thought to consider: the yoga brick. Sometimes, its used as support. Its presence can signal areas in the body that are tight or contracted to release and let go.... Other times, the brick can be used to penetrate areas of stiffness. Amazingly, there are also times when this simple prop accomplishes both tasks simultaneously. This is why I Iyengar Yoga. Its inherently non-binary. Its not about right or wrong, this way or that way, rather it teaches us (empowers us!) to reveal the intricacies of our own embodiment.

LESS physical//MORE sensitive// thoughts on PROGRESS If the first time you lift up into Urdhva Dhanurasana is difficult, ought it *always* be difficult? If with practice, an asana becomes more available, does that mean you are no longer trying, that your yoga is not as good? Consider the expressions trying hard and working hard. Is effort meant to be measured with hardness?... Is it easy for you to put forward 1000%? Take away one of those zeros and does it feel like you are barely doing anything? What does it mean to always do more? To always want more? In Yoga and beyond? I think that sometimes in life the hardest action to take is NON-ACTION, and from an asana perspective, sometimes the harder, more advanced thing to do is LESS! What do you think? Have you struggled with overdoing? Does it show up for you on the mat? Have you discovered ways to temper the tendency?
