What is Iyengar Yoga?

Iyenger yoga is named after mr Iyengar who is 90 this year and has made yoga a worldwide affair, check him out on you tube.

How is it different to other types of yoga ?

Supports are used for students to help them reach flexibility. support helps students to relax and breathe in a posture where they might otherwise tense, then the release occurs

Do you have to have done any other type of yoga before you start?

It is good to start with iyengar yoga because it is strict on alignment and  injury is far less likely
 

Can you practice Iyengar yoga when pregnant?

You can practice when pregnant if you are familiar with iyengar yoga, but would recommend a pre natal class especially for that and for thefirst trimester just very light postures.The book "yoga a gem for woman" by gita iyengar illustrates with her heavily pregnant sister what is advisable
 

Are there any age limits to this type of yoga practice?

Anyone of any age can practice
 

What type of people do it ( men/women??)

 men and women practice
