An enduring complaint about Power Yoga is
the lack of proper alignment. Since Iyengar Yoga
is considered the authority on precision and
alignment in Yoga, I created & developed Power
Alignment Yoga™, which is a synergistic blend of
Power Yoga and Iyengar Yoga. Power Alignment
Yoga™ is a rigorous, flowing, physical practice
that incorporates Iyengar Yoga alignment
principles, meditation, and breath work, with a
big dose of spirituality to align body, breath,
mind and spirit. This amazing blend of Iyengar
Yoga and Power Yoga invigorates the body,
focuses the mind, and expands the spirit.
