Alignment Yoga

Align your body and mind with alignment-based yoga! Alignment based yoga is a style of yoga that draws from the teachings of B. K. S. Iyengar (Iyengar Yoga) and emphasizes the optimal alignment of your bones and joints in each pose. This way, you can experience the full benefits of yoga without causing stress or injury to your body. By aligning your bones, you can also reduce the effects of gravity and activate your muscles more intelligently. In this class, you will learn how to pay attention to your own body and practice yoga with awareness and precision. This is a transformative practice that will help you create integration and harmony in your body and mind. This class is based on Suzanne’s Iyengar Yoga training. 532Yoga has been awarded Best Yoga Studio in Alexandria, VA for four years in a row by Alexandria Best Businesses. 532Yoga is a unique community that has formed from students and teachers, and is a teacher-run and community-driven studio.
