Iyengar Yoga Institute of
San Francisco


Quality, Integrity, and Experience since 1974

Home to the oldest Iyengar teacher-training program in the United States, and the only state accredited Iyengar Yoga program in California, the Iyengar Yoga Institute of San Francisco (IYISF) has trained students and teachers from the United States and around the world for over 30 years.

The IYISF is recognized for its tradition of excellence by offering students a comprehensive curriculum providing a fundamentally sound, rewarding and challenging learning experience in the hatha and ashtanga yoga tradition as taught by BKS Iyengar. (See Light on Yoga, Light on Astanga Yoga & Light on the Yoga Sutras by BKS Iyengar.)

The Institute's program includes intensive studies in Asana (postures), Pranayama (breathing practice), human anatomy, physiology, philosophy, and teaching techniques with hands-on experience.

The Iyengar Yoga Institute of San Francisco is administered by the Iyengar Yoga Association of Northern California (IYANC). The IYANC is a membership based non-profit corporation dedicated to the study, practice and teaching of Iyengar Yoga.
