Strengthen for Ease and Lightness
In Yoga as it is in life we need certain physical and mental strength to move through practice and life with ease. In the class series, we'll learn to build these necessary strengths systematically over four classes. With Peter's precise instructions, we'll experience how the right strength can make the more challenging poses easier and lighter. Different level classes will have different focus.
Level 1:
● leg strength in standing poses
● spinal strength in backbends.
● Combination of the above two for stability and lift as we work towards or build on our inversions practice.
● Building mental strength by working with the back body - the unseen and unknown.
Pre-requisite: at least one year of practice
Level 2:
● Arm strength for powerful foundation in handstand and forearm balance
● Stabilizing shoulder strength for more advanced backbends, arm balances and inversion.
● Deepening mental strength as we gain clarity and awareness in more subtle precision.
Pre-requisite: Able to do headstand independently.

Peter Scott, Iyengar Yoga Advanced Junior 2
Peter Scott has been practicing yoga since 1977 and has devoted over 40 years to the art and science of yoga. The strength and power of Peter’s teaching is an amalgam of all these years of study with the Iyengar family, teaching and learning about his students around the world, and at the core, his dedicated personal practice of Iyengar yoga.
He is much loved by students around the world for his ability to inspire and positively encourage the practitioner along the path of yoga, and for the clarity he creates when teaching. Peter’s instructions and his approach to teaching leads the student into that penetration of awareness to where body, senses, organs of action, mind and intellect work together to give lightness of body and calmness of mind during the asana practice. Through his deep knowledge of yoga combined with his previous professional work and lecturer in Naturopathy and Remedial Massage, Peter has extensive knowledge of the body, its anatomy and physiology, and how that relates to yogic wisdom.
Peter, from Australia, has been dedicated to teaching yoga since 1982 and continues to lead teacher trainings and workshops around the world.
