The Green Yoga

04/27/08 14:39

Yoga is all about invigourating yourself with renewed energy and strength so that you never feel exhausted in the battle called life. But then not everyone is ready to take a plunge unless some minor experience is gained. If that experience is gained in a green environment, that acts as a further boost to the belief of superiority of Yoga in this material life. Read on to find more about one such Yoga school.

Yoga Clothing and Props

Aside from preparing one's soul and body, practicing yoga will be easier once you have the necessary equipment, which includes proper clothing, mats, rugs, and props (such as straps, blocks, blankets, bolsters, zafus, and backjacks). This does not mean, of course, that the yogi is attached to material things.

Having the right kind of yoga equipment will ensure the free movement of the body and comfort while you are in the middle of a pose. Imagine yourself wearing a pair of jeans and a jacket while in the middle of Tadasana (mo'untain pose). Wont that feel uncomfortable?

As for props, they have been one of the major contributions of Iyengar yoga to the greater yoga world. By using them, you could attain proper structural alignment of your body in the asanas. This structural alignment is the basis of Iyengar yoga.

Merely getting these clothing and equipment from a random yoga equipment shop will just be useless, as this is like using equipment for a competitive sport. Use well-designed clothing and see a good performance, use an ill-designed one and expect a dismal job.

For your well-made yoga clothing and equipments, get only from the best. Get them from Yogaware. They are specially designed by Laura Roberts, who happens to have over 30 years of being an Iyengar yoga practitioner. 10 of these years were devoted as a teacher. Rest assured that these designs were made by someone who really knows.

Classic BKS Iyengar Video for Sale

With over 60 years of practicing and teaching yoga, Belur Krishnamachar Sundararaja Iyengar, or simply B.K.S. Iyengar, is considered to be one of the pillars of yoga teaching today. His influence was so great that he was once named by Time Magazine as one of the 100 most influential personalities on the world.

Seeing Mr. Iyengar personally perform in front of you might be near impossibility, but that doesn't mean you can't see him in action. See him practice a full asanas series in this special video recorded during his 1976 visit to Ann Arbor, Michigan.
