BKS Iyengar

About us

The Iyengar Yoga National Association of the US is launching its inaugural regional conference in New England. It takes many hands and heads to put together an event of this caliber, gather all the information needed, and create an event showcasing our excitement and spreading the teachings of BKS Iyengar. Our dedication to excellence comes from our heart, as we are all volunteers offering our time and energy, offering the fruits of our labors to shine light into the hearts of people new and not so new to Mr. Iyengar’s teachings.

With sincere appreciation for their efforts, and acknowledging that this is an incomplete list of people who helped to create this conference, we’d like to thank the following.
