“Iyengar Yoga” teaches all the 8 aspects of astanga yoga through asanas and pranayama. Yogacharya B.K.S.Iyengar has been teaching us how the performance of an asana needs disciplines encoded by yama and niyama, how the body needs to be guided in asana, the role of the breath (pranayama), how the complete involvement of the senses of perception (pratyahara) and total concentration (dharana and dhyana) help to attain samadhi.
