Mr. B.K.S. Iyengar

Yogacharya B.K.S. Iyengar, a foremost authority on the subject in the current era, has made it possible for ordinary human beings from all walks of life to experience the wisdom of the yoga sutras. Unlike the scholars and academicians who articulate the meaning and syntax of the sutras in terms of speculative concepts, Yogacharya Iyengar finds the meaning of the sutras by practical search and regular practice, experimenting on himself before sharing his experiential knowledge amongst his students.

His style of teaching yoga which is now being followed by teachers trained by him has led to it being called as "Iyengar Yoga". Thus, yoga as taught by Yogacharya B.K.S. Iyengar and his students is "Iyengar Yoga".
