Iyengar Yoga Level 2 builds on the foundations established in Level 1. In this level, practitioners deepen their understanding of poses and alignment, often incorporating more challenging asanas and longer holds. The classes typically introduce more advanced techniques, variations, and transitions, allowing students to enhance their strength, flexibility, and balance. Practitioners are encouraged to refine their alignment and engage more fully with the subtleties of each pose. Breath awareness and the use of props continue to play an important role, and there's often a greater emphasis on the philosophical aspects of yoga. Level 2 is suitable for those who have a solid understanding of basic poses and are ready to explore more complex practices.
