Iyengar

In class we did Iyengar. First off, I would like to point out that her shorts were funny, I'm sure there is a different outfit that can be worn to show the legs other than the adult diaper she was sporting.
Some likes that I had of the practice were, I liked the fact that the teacher takes the time to make sure that you are performing each move properly, so that you are getting all you can out of the exercise without sacrificing your form. So I personally like the way that she adapted moves to fit my personal issues of a tight lower back and hamstrings due to knee surgeries. I think for someone just getting into yoga that an Iyengar class would definitely be a good class to start in, in order to get a strong base for proper form. That being said I don't know if I would be able to stick with Iyengar as a permanent practice because it seems very boring.
I also like the premise behind Iyengar because it is very individualized, the main focus is on the develop and improvement of yourself.
