Iyengar Yoga, named after and developed by B. K. S. Iyengar, is a form of Hatha Yoga that has an emphasis on detail, precision and alignment in the performance of posture (asana) and breath control (pranayama). The development of strength, mobility and stability is gained through the asanas.

B.K.S. Iyengar has systematised over 200 classical yoga poses and 14 different types of Pranayama (with variations of many of them) ranging from the basic to advanced. This helps ensure that students progress gradually by moving from simple poses to more complex ones and develop their mind, body and spirit through a step-by-step approach.

Iyengar Yoga often makes use of props, such as belts, blocks, and blankets, as aids in performing asanas (postures). The props enable students to perform the asanas correctly, minimising the risk of injury or strain, and making the postures accessible to both young and old.

Iyengar Yoga is firmly based on the traditional eight limbs of yoga as expounded by Patanjali in his Yoga Sutras.

艾扬格瑜伽，命名于 B.K.S. 艾扬格大师，是哈他瑜伽的形式，强调体式和呼吸的细节，精准与对位。通过体式习练可获得力量，灵活性以及稳定感。

B.K.S. 艾扬格大师系统化了200种经典瑜伽体式和14种呼吸控制法，由简入难。保证学生能够逐渐地从简单体式进阶到复杂体式，逐步地发展心智，身体和灵性。

艾扬格瑜伽常使用辅助工具帮助完成体式，例如绳子，砖和毯。这些工具帮助学生正确地完成体式，减小受伤，扭伤风险，并使得体式老少皆宜。

艾扬格瑜伽严格地遵循帕坦伽利《瑜伽经》中的瑜伽八支。
