A note about the levels:
All classes are for continuing level students who have experience with Iyengar Yoga.
The Saturday afternoon Asana class will be geared toward intermediate students—those with more experience will be challenged to integrate new mature concepts. The Sunday morning Asana class is geared toward more advanced students—those with less experience will be given alternatives so they can start learning new concepts.
