Today, 20th August 2014, the legendary BKS Iyengar died in India, aged 96. Some early tributes announcing his death can be read on Yoga Journal, Hindustan Times, Yogi Times, the BKS Iyengar Yoga website and some tributes and embedded videos on Elephant Journal website.
Even if you’ve never been to an Iyengar class, even if you’ve never experienced an Iyengar-qualified teacher, even if you’ve never read one of his many books, if you practice yoga today or have practised yoga in the last 50+ years, you will have experienced some of his influence.
I will write a longer piece when I’ve had time to reflect on his influence.
Namaste.
