My yoga practice has benefited from a having a biological background and becoming familiar with the language of this discipline.

Understanding biological structure and function were major components, tools of the biological research i was engaged in at independent, academic and hospital institutions over decades.

It was not surprising my yoga movements were informed by my knowledge of biology.  

Iyengar Tradition of Yoga

The yoga i was introduced to was based on the methods taught and promoted by B. K. S. Iyengar.

It was my young and talented yoga instructor, Ray Hoyt, who first introduced me to Master Iyengar's classic book, "Light on Yoga".

The diversity and extent of possible yoga body movements were well documented and appreciated by me. 

Iyengar's words and images continue to inform the yoga i practice and share with my clients.
