Iyengar Yoga Wall

It is said in Yoga, that "you are only as old as your spine." Thus, as long as you have a healthy and flexible spine, your ability to participate in life is endless! To open the spine in every direction without comparison = hang upside down and practice yoga!

History & Evolution of the Yoga Wall

Based on BKS Iyengar’s principles of alignment, ‘the wall’ is used as a prop to deepen asana by opening and creating space in the body using therapeutic techniques. (Inversions in our advanced classes). The original “Yoga Wall” took on the form of ropes attached to wall hooks, designed by Iyengar, which has blessed humanity for decades. As years passed, the Yoga Wall evolved and introduced new systems of adjustable straps to accommodate body-types of all sorts. In the early 1980s, the newest system was designed (due to a foot injury on an older system’s wall hooks) by Kedric Wolfe; he knew there had to be a “better way” to use the wall, with simple versatility.
