Ann Arbor School of Yoga is a dedicated Iyengar yoga institute in Ann Arbor focused on disciplined, methodical study rather than casual drop-in practice. The school teaches yoga as a transformative process involving body, mind, and breath, with instruction built around sequential, cumulative learning and careful progression through levels. Beginners start with foundational Level I classes, while students with prior Iyengar experience may be placed more advanced in consultation with a teacher. Directed by Laurie Blakeney, who has practiced since 1971 and studied with Shri B.K.S. Iyengar, the school emphasizes precision, steadiness, continuity, and sustained practice as paths to deeper self-understanding.
