B.K.S. Iyengar 1938 newsreel Part 1 (SILENT)   Bookmark or Share This Video lmOUZQi_6TwDownload Video     This is a film made by McPetruk in 1938 showing and shows Iyengar demonstrating yoga. Here we see a young Iyengar (still alive, well, and doing yoga, BTW) doing advanced poses that constitute the advanced A & B astanga series. This is obviously well before Iyengar dropped the vinyasa aspect from his practice and rebranded it as "Iyengar Yoga", putting greater emphasis on alignment.

The physical is the emphasis in Hatha yoga, not to be taken out of context of the greater context. Personally, I think all the spiritual mumbo-jumbo is garbage and I only like the physical. jvgmusic Beatifull jvgmusic jvgmusic aum jvgmusic jvgmusic nmeste pure reaw organic yoga Utube75 @Psamiad1986 but a gymnast cannot do what all this guy can do.
