 "That which dwells in the abode of the body is Purusah-the Seer,
It is the very essence, the conscious principle, of every being."


"In every posture, the body, the mind, action and motion, as well as each breath of the physical, physiological, mental and intellectual sheaths have to be evenly balanced."

Welcome to the Iyengar Yoga Center Of Ojai in Southern California.
​
In this serene and beautiful valley of Ojai there is no better place to practice and learn this ancient science, art, and philosophy of Yoga as it is taught by the lineage of the legendary B.K.S IYENGAR.

Everyone can do Yoga, from young to old, men, women or children, diseased or disabled remembering that each one of us is special, different, and unique. There are no blue prints in nature (prakriti) and so the yogic poses (asanas) have to be learned to fit each individual need. Yoga teaches us to find the potential energy that is hidden inside the body and how to bring it to the surface in order to utilize it properly. We invite you to join our classes and experience the benefits of this ancient art.
Yogena cittasya padena vacam

malam sarirasya ca vaidyakena

yopakarottam pravaram muninam

patanjalim pranajaliranato'smi

abahu purusakaram 

sankha cakrasi dharinam

sahasra sirasam svetam

pranamami patanjalim.
"To the noblest of sage, Patanjali,

Who Gave Yoga for serenity of mind,

Grammar for purity of speech,

And medicine for the health of the body, I bow.

I prostrate before Patanjali,

Whose upper body has a human form,

Whose arms hold a counch and disk,

Who is crowned by a thousand-headed cobra,

O incarnation of Adisesa,
My salutation to thee
