Iyengar Yoga with K-Lea Gifford

Small things with big effects, like how to properly move, bend, and extend my knee in various poses. Or how to use props to make certain poses accessible, balanced, restorative, and effective. I just absolutely adore her and am so grateful to know her and look forward to practicing with her more ??????
