Welcome To Family Yoga Centre

Family Yoga Centre in Edmonton follows the teachings of BKS Iyengar www.bksiyengar.com. Iyengar Yoga promotes integration of body, mind and spirit through the practice of traditional yoga postures (asanas) and breathing techniques (pranayama).

THE IYENGAR STYLE

Iyengar Yoga places special emphasis on developing strength, endurance, balance and correct body alignment. This style of Yoga was developed to allow both a beginner and a more advanced Yoga practitioner to progress safely from basic to more advanced postures as they gain flexibility, strength and sensitivity in mind and body. As students practice the postures, the mind becomes focused on the actions of the posture and the movements of the breath.

Family Yoga Centre’s Edmonton based instructors have from 10 to 30 years yoga experience. All of the teachers at the Family Yoga Centre are members of the Iyengar Association of Canada (IYAC) and are either already nationally certified with the IYAC or are in the Iyengar teacher program preparing to be certified. With a dedication to life long learning they are committed to sharing their training and experience with the Sadhakas (students of Yoga) who attend Yoga practice at Edmonton’s Family Yoga Centre.
