Tejas Class

Online Level 1 Iyengar Yoga | Mondays & Fridays  7:00 AM

Tejas is often translated as inner fire, radiance, or spiritual brilliance. To me, Tejas is the flame that doesn’t burn out. It is the quiet, steady commitment to return to practice—even on the mornings when motivation is low.

In the Yoga Sutras, Patañjali teaches that transformation comes through abhyāsa—a steady, uninterrupted practice carried on over a long period of time with dedication. This is the essence of Tejas: not intensity for a week, but a flame that continues to glow day after day, year after year.

This class is designed for students who wish to deepen their Iyengar Yoga practice through regular, disciplined study. Meeting twice each week cultivates strength, stability, clarity, and confidence while refining observation and self-awareness. Through this consistent practice, we experience pariṇāma—the profound transformation that unfolds over time.

Tejas is a Level 1 Iyengar Yoga class intended for students with prior Iyengar Yoga experience. Students should be comfortable with:

  • Śīrṣāsana (Headstand) preparation

  • Sarvāṅgāsana (Shoulder Stand)

Students should also be familiar with the use of Iyengar Yoga props and foundational alignment principles.

  • 1 clear wall space

  • 1 yoga bolster

  • 4 yoga blankets

These props are an essential part of the Iyengar method and allow us to explore the poses with greater precision, safety, and understanding.
