NATALIE PALMS I have always relied on physical fitness to help me emotionally and physically. I was looking for a specific style of yoga that would best suit my mental, physical, and spiritual needs. Ironically, I couldn’t find a yoga studio in the Bay Area that I felt provided that on a deeper level – until I went to Adeline Yoga. Once I was in class, I immediately knew that this was where I was meant to be. I keep coming back to Adeline Yoga because the teachers knowledge is so in-depth that it keeps me curious. I appreciate the discipline and accountability teachers hold for their students. The classes are well structured, rigorous, and calming every single time! I know I will always feel better after going to class. Yoga has made me a happier and healthier. VIVIAN CHAVEZ I was a long time practitioner and came to Adeline Yoga because I needed a more advanced, spiritual and energetic depth to my practice. I studied twice in India and I believe that unless the teacher has an anatomical, philosophical, and spiritual depth to their teaching, then they are not teaching yoga. The teachers at Adeline are not only friendly, they care.  They notice each and every student’s pain or situation. I feel respected by the teachers. There is a level of trust I have with the teachers, students and studio. I am aging, and I feel like my body is one I can count on because of yoga. My body feels empowered. Going through menopause, I think, what do people do without yoga?! TOM HORTON When I began at Adeline, I did a lot of running and wanted to see if I could lessen the pain in my lower back and extend my running career into my 60’s. I went to one class and was hooked! I always feel so much better after I go to class. It eases the pain in my stiff joints – and I like the mental clarity and calmness I get. For me, Adeline Yoga is a bit of a spiritual oasis. I love it when I can take some of that calmness into other areas of my life – like work. I also feel good about introducing my family to the practice. My brother and I are the two stiffest people in class, but we are getting more flexible and love yoga!

We recommend you register at least 10 minutes before the class start – you will need that time to get your link, settle in and connect with the teacher before class begins.

Some students practice in front of their couch, next to a bed, or an open wall. Any open space will do. Most Iyengar yoga classes use a few props. Have a chair nearby – a regular chair from your dining room works great. Blankets, a strap/belt that fits comfortably around the hands, feet, shoulders, and back, and books or anything sturdy in case you can’t touch your toes. Keep these props accessible during each class. Interested in an Iyengar Yoga Prop Kit? We have a Home practice kit that includes 2 blocks, 2 belts, 1 bolster, and 4 blankets available to purchase here . Let your family or roommates know that you will be in yoga class.

Turn off notifications and any devices that you aren’t using to view the class.   MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR CLASS EXPERIENCE Please enter your zoom class 10 minutes before the start time. It is important that you arrive at least 5 minutes before class starts. That gives you time to meet the teacher, make sure your audio and video is set and settle in for a nice class experience. These minutes before class are very important for your safety and ours. Please have your video on. The teacher can connect with you and provide safer guidance. Please have your audio on mute. If you have any questions, or run into issues during class, please communicate with the teacher by unmuting your mic or using the Chat function. You will enjoy the class most if you view in “full screen” mode. At the end of class you may want to say hello to everyone here in “gallery” mode.

Fundamentals Series This 4-session series is specially designed for beginners. You will learn the foundations of Iyengar yoga to help you build strength and flexibility and relieve stress. Designed for total beginners and students who want a better understanding of the foundational poses of Iyengar yoga. Each 75-minute session will build upon the prior class in a progressive manner. You will get the most out of the classes if you attend the entire series. Upon completion of the series, you will be prepared to enter Foundations classes. All body types and abilities are welcome. Foundations For newbies with no or little experience doing Iyengar Yoga. Every glorious home is built on a strong foundation, right? In this class, you will build your strength, stamina and confidence through standing poses. From there, you learn other types of poses including forward extensions, back extensions, restorative postures and get an introduction to types of inversions. This class is excellent for people who have taken our yoga fundamentals series, or who are preparing to take it. It is geared to people who are newer to developing body awareness and using props. Continuing Beginner For students with experience doing Iyengar Yoga. The foundation of the method is continued through the more complex standing poses. In this class we will also refine your practice of shoulderstand and headstand, forward extensions and backbends. You will get to learn more about twists and abdominals too. In this class, the goal is for students build their strength and stamina even more, and expand their repertoire of yoga poses. Intermediate For those with solid Iyengar Yoga experience. Intermediate classes focus on refining basic postures and introducing new poses including all the inversions and their variations, pushing up into backbends, holding deeper forward extensions and getting into the arm balances too. This class is appropriate if you can do Salamba Sirsasana and Salamba Sarvangasana for 3 – 5 minutes with variations – and know the alternatives when these poses are not appropriate for you. Advanced For sincere Iyengar Yoga practitioners with at least three years of consistent study with a Certified Iyengar Yoga Instructor (CIYT). This class assumes a thorough understanding of all intermediate poses and their Sanskrit names. The advanced class builds on the foundational and intermediate poses to introduce the advanced body-knotting poses, sitting pranayama and more. This class is appropriate if you can do Salamba Sirsasana and Sarvangasana for 5-10 minutes each, with variations, and push up to Urdhva Dhanurasana on your own – and know the alternatives when these poses are not appropriate for you Gentle Pace A gentle yoga class good for beginners and students desiring a moderately paced class. If you have nagging injuries, chronic conditions or specific individual needs, this is a good class for you. Find personalized attention with creative modifications and prop use from a certified yoga teacher. Includes active and restorative poses, and basic breathing techniques. Yoga for Bone Health For people who want to increase their strength, flexibility and balance by working on their bone health. Regular attendance in this class can also help with increased bone mineral density, added physical strength and stamina, improved balance and coordination, better posture, enhanced flexibility and range of motion and less stress and anxiety. With a different focus each week, we will explore a range of yoga poses that develop these benefits. Yoga for Healthy Aging It is designed for those whose injuries and limitations make it necessary to practice slowly and with focus. This class teaches students how to help themselves using the healing benefits of asana as their tool. For example, it offers techniques for joint support, muscular strength, balance maintenance, and injury prevention to help us as we age. Iyengar Yoga for BIPOC folks A weekly class for folks who are Black, Indigenous, and/or People of Color. Yoga is for EVERY body. All types, shapes, sizes, and abilities are welcome here. Queer and Trans bodies are celebrated in this space. We use active poses to cultivate strength and stability, and to prepare the mind, body, and nervous system for deeper rest. Through the practice of Yoga we learn to care for our unique selves and meet each moment as it comes. This class is geared towards beginners and those new to Iyengar Yoga. It is offered on a sliding scale. Students are encouraged to give generously from the heart, in accordance with their means. Community Class An all-levels class offered at a rate of sliding scale of $8, $12 or $18. Or use the membership or class pass you already have. We offer sliding scale in the spirit of equity and accessibility while inviting you to to supporting our teachers and studio. If you can pay more, please do so. This allows us to continue offering yoga to a large and diverse array of community members. We recognize that the lower end of our pricing may still feel out of reach, or you may want to take classes beyond the Community Classes. We have a special fund to provide this type of support. Contact [email protected] for more info. Restorative Restorative yoga is a deeply restful practice designed to support healing, recovery, and nervous system regulation. Using props such as blankets, bolsters, and blocks, the body is fully supported in gentle postures held for longer periods of time. With effort minimized, the mind can settle, and the breath can soften. This practice invites deep relaxation, helps relieve chronic tension, and restores balance to the body and mind. It is especially supportive for times of stress, fatigue, injury, or transition – or whenever you need to replenish your energy and reconnect with quiet awareness. All bodies and experience levels are welcome. Pranayama Breath awareness classes offered regularly in a series format. See the current schedule for upcoming dates. Continued Healing A class for that focuses on the therapeutic use of poses to help address pain and strengthen the body. This may include a focus on the low back, knees, feet, hips, spine, neck, shoulders, and hands. Instructions and the use of props are given mindfully so that poses can be done with intention, concentration and care. Restorative poses are included to create a healthy balance of relaxation. Through this healing class, we will be enriched with improved circulation, movement and strength. Back Care This class moves more slowly than general classes and offers a step-by-step approach to relieving and preventing back pain.

Classes are sequenced to promote health and skill in the body, and stability in the mind. Doing yoga the Iyengar way means that emphasis is placed on alignment of the body, mind and breath. The class is artfully sequenced so the student can begin to experience inner harmony and quiet inside. We welcome you to get strong and centered through a personalized and sensible yoga practice. Meet your life with confidence and ease. Iyengar Yoga is known for asana, the physical postures, yet the practice incorporates the breath, the mind and yoga philosophy throughout each class. All classes start with sitting to develop meditative quiet, and often we may do a short chant to thank the teachers who have brought us this practice. We end every class with savasana, a pose for rest and recuperation. Iyengar Yoga has its roots in India, though it is universal. Iyengar Yoga is for everyone. Skilled Teachers Certified Iyengar Yoga teachers know how to meet students of all ages and abilities. Our job is to meet you where you are at! Our teachers have extensive training and direct personal experience of the yoga postures so that we can teach the individuals in front of us – you will get modifications, corrections and support every step of the way. We love all body types, abilities and ages. From your first class, Iyengar Yoga develops strength, stamina, coordination and flexibility . We use a safe and systematic progression of poses to develop your abilities. This total approach ensures that students progress from posture to posture, class to class, and year to year. Our teachers are passionate! Using physical alignment as a starting point, Iyengar Yoga classes encourage the spread of intelligence throughout the body, the growth of self awareness and an experience of the asanas as a form of meditation in action. Iyengar Yoga has its roots in Vedic tradition. All our teachers use Sanskrit names for poses – and we bring the Vedic traditions into class through chant, yoga philosophy and story telling. While asana is at the heart of what we offer at Adeline Yoga, we also love to chant, do pranayama and study together. Our teachers have dedicated pranayama practices and study yogic texts such as the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali and Bhagavad Gita. Iyengar Yoga is not religious. It is for seekers of all backgrounds. We are very much aware of the importance of cultural appreciation rather than appropriation. Our roots in Iyengar Yoga are buried deeply into the soil of India itself. As a center for studying yoga, we have roles both as guardians of yoga traditions and as yogic seekers.     B.K.S. Iyengar Named one of Time magazine’s 100 most influential people, B.K.S. Iyengar is universally acknowledged as the world’s foremost yoga teacher. Yogacharya (yoga master) Iyengar brought yoga to the west with his pioneering teaching in the 1960s and 70s, fueling the explosive popularity we have seen today. His book, Light on Yoga , is considered the “the bible of yoga,” and has been the source book for generations of yoga students. BKS Iyengar was often called the “Michelangelo of yoga”. Mr. Iyengar systematized over 200 classical yoga Asanas and 14 different types of pranayamas from the simple to the incredibly difficult. These have been structured and categorized to allow a beginner to progress surely and safely from basic postures to the most advanced as they gain flexibility, strength and sensitivity in mind, body and spirit. BKS Iyengar passed away in 2014 at age 96, though he continued his daily yoga practice until the very end. His daughter Geeta S. Iyengar carried on the tradition until she away passed in 2018. His son Prashant S. Iyengar, and his granddaughter, Abhijata Iyengar, as well as a cadre of highly trained teachers carry on BKS Iyengar’s work, teaching scores of local and international students at the Ramamani Memorial Yoga Institute (RIMYI) in Pune, India. Many of Adeline Yoga’s teachers have studied directly with the Iyengar family , and several of us make regular trips to the Iyengar Yoga Institute in India.   Hallmarks of Iyengar Yoga Instruction: Clear directions and demonstrations from teachers help students learn and improve poses. Accurate and specific instructions also help prevent injuries. Iyengar Yoga encourages weak parts of the body to strengthen and stiff areas to release, thus awakening and realigning the whole body. Sequencing: Every Iyengar yoga class is different. Our teachers introduce a wide variety of poses depending on the theme of the class and the needs of the students . Basic principles are taught in a safe and systematic way within a class, and from class to class. Teachers understand which poses best prepare the body and mind for subsequent poses. Personalized: Iyengar teachers offer students individual feedback about how to improve poses. Teachers are trained in how to adapt poses to address common physical problems. Certified teachers are can address common problems with knees, lower back, neck and shoulders, headaches, anxiety and depression, and more. Please let us know about yourself so we can support you in your yoga journey. Props: Props such as belts and blocks can help students experience the benefits of a pose. Teachers may use props to deepen a pose, support students in resting poses, and give students the ability to do poses that might otherwise not be possible . Philosophy: Philosophical concepts are integrated in asana classes and their relevance to daily life is highlighted. The Iyengar method focuses on developing inner awareness by using the body as a focal point for the attention, creating a conscious state of being in the moment. Variety: Each time you come to class you will do a new sequence of poses. A class might focus on a category of poses (such as backbends or restoratives), or on an area of the body (such as the hips or hamstrings). With consistent study, students are exposed to all categories of poses and progressively develop strength, flexibility, balance, stamina, and concentration. Teaching Excellence: Iyengar teachers are among the most highly trained yoga instructors in the world. Certification to teach Iyengar Yoga requires years of study and passing rigorous assessment tests. Yoga Beyond Asana: Iyengar Yoga cultivates all 8 disciplines of yoga and is far from gymnastics and deep breathing. With practice and understanding, asana and pranayama affects the individual on mental and spiritual levels as well as a physical level . Community: Our community of students and teachers extends across the entire globe. We are tied together by the teachings of BKS Iyengar , meeting in classes, workshops and conventions both locally, regionally, nationally and in Pune India. It is so much fun to take a class in Buenos Aires and then Prague, with a home base at Adeline Yoga. You can see we are all passionate about similar things. We love being together in class, discussing yoga over meals, volunteering, launching projects and being together in so many other ways.

Teachers of yoga in the United States are not required to be certified. Many professional teachers do complete a 200-hour training course, and some pursue a general yoga certification. Iyengar yoga certification is considered the “gold standard” because it is the most rigorous teacher certification program in the world. Candidates for Iyengar yoga certification must study for a minimum of three years, complete a 500-hour training or equivalent program, complete an apprenticeship and pass two levels of intense testing and evaluation. Assessment For Iyengar yoga certification, teachers are evaluated on more than 45 different criteria , including the clarity of their instruction, their ability to teach poses to a wide range of students, and their skill in observing and correcting students. Assessment includes: Demonstrated practice Pranayama Comprehensive written test that includes knowledge of anatomy, physiology, yoga philosophy, Sanskrit, and teaching concepts For each examination, candidates are evaluated in-person by a panel of three CIYT assessors over a 2-day period. It does happen for candidates to have to test more than once to pass a level. Six levels of proficiency are tested in the United States. Each level is progressive, building on knowledge developed in the previous level. It takes decades to advance to the highest levels, and regular trips to India are required. Standards and syllabi are designed by BKS Iyengar for each level. Assessment is administered through our national organization and held each year at yoga centers around the United States. Nearly all of our teachers are CIYT (Certified Iyengar Yoga Teacher) and many are continuing with their certification at a variety of levels between Introductory, Intermediate Junior and Senior levels. Best of luck to everyone! Support You can support the certification process by serving as a student in a mock assessment. It’s free! During the assessment preparation season (usually March – December) we have several mock assessments each month. Click here to view the calender and register. Participate The mock assessment are teaching tools. They are free for students to participate. These mock assessments strengthen our teaching, build community and prepare us for successful certification. We hope you will join us ! Get Certified If you want to become a certified teacher yourself, you can begin the path by taking regular classes with a CIYT who is certified at Junior Intermediate I or above. They can mentor you through the process, or you can take a teacher education program like Sadhana Studies . Advance Your Teaching A great option for those who want to explore teaching – and those who have been teaching for many years but are now ready to pursue the gold-standard CIYT designation. Contact us and we will be happy to provide you with a list of Sadhana Studies participants and graduates so you can learn more.   Our Studio Adeline Yoga Studio offers the highest concentration of certified Iyengar teachers in the East Bay. Most of our teachers are certified at the Introductory II level or higher. When you study with a certified teacher, you can be sure that your teacher has received thousands of hours of training. Iyengar yoga teachers use their deep knowledge of the asanas to individualize corrections for each student. Students receive clear demonstrations of the postures, and know that they are being observed by someone with a well-developed eye. These are the marks of an Iyengar yoga teacher. Other teachers have continued with toward higher Iyengar certification. For example, Michael Lucey is certified at the Senior Intermediate level (6th level) and Heather Haxo Phillips is certified as a Junior Intermediate 3 teacher (the 5th level). Few, even among Iyengar teachers, choose to pursue this level of certification because it is so rigorous. At this level, Heather and Michael are able to offer particular expertise on many topics including pregnancy and prenatal yoga. Heather also actively serves as a mentor for new teachers and others engaged in the Iyengar Yoga certification process. While not all teachers at Adeline Yoga are certified, we all teach with Iyengar’s teachings as our primary influence.

We want to help you find real and lasting results – helping you get out of pain, develop better stress management techniques and simply learn how to rest – really truly rest.

Here are answers to commonly asked questions about our studio. Get Started Today What can I expect in class? Please pre-register for class to save your spot. New students for our in-person classes should arrive 15 minutes early to check in, meet the teacher and get settled. New students for our zoom classes should arrive 10 minutes early. This time will be used! Classes begin exactly at the scheduled times. You will need to allocate time to get set up for class and say hello to the teacher. We take time to greet each student and get to know your needs. Give yourself time for this by being in class 15 before the start time. We do lock the studio doors 10 minutes after the start of every class. Classes do fill up and we have waitlists for some in-person classes. Its important to pre-register. And, if you cannot make it to class, please take yourself off the roster prior to the start time. What about food and drink? It does not feel good to do yoga with a full stomach. Try not to eat a big meal less than two hours before class. If you do need a snack before class, try something light. It is wise to come to class well hydrated. For safety reasons, beverages and water bottles are not allowed on the studio floor. You are welcome to keep them with your other belongings. What should I wear? Wear comfortable clothes that are not baggy. Start with a t-shirt or tank top, paired with shorts or leggings. Form-fitting outfits are best, so the teacher will be able to see your postures and help you with alignment. Wearing layers is good too, so you can stay warm in the resting poses. No footwear is needed: yoga is practiced barefoot. What class should I go to? Our class descriptions page gives complete specifics of each class so that you know what to expect. We love to make suggestions based on your situation and wellness goals. Please do contact us to get recommendations particular to your interests: email [email protected] or call us (510) 982 – 1873 . Where are you located? You can find us at 3310 Adeline in Berkeley, between the intersection of Alcatraz and the “here/there” sign. There are plenty of Adeline Yoga signs to help you along the way. We have free and plentiful parking for cars and bikes right outside the studio. We are about three blocks from BART, and have a bus stop right outside. You can find a map and full details here . What if I have special concerns or physical problems? This practice is open to all people and all abilities. Please let your instructor know before class starts of your special needs. We will gladly work within your range of movements and assist your practice and health to new heights. If you are menstruating, pregnant or not feeling well, please let us know. Certain poses are contraindicated and other poses will help in these situations – we will show you. That said, yoga may not be appropriate for certain acute injuries or illnesses. If you are not sure about your specific condition, ask your doctor and email us at [email protected]. Some students do like to take a private yoga lesson with a teacher prior to visiting Adeline Yoga. Other students enjoy pairing occasional private lessons with attending regular group classes. Private lessons are usually hour-long sessions with an expert teacher. They will help you develop confidence and learn yoga that fits your needs Class Schedule - Adeline Yoga Studio Skip to primary navigation Skip to main content Adeline Yoga Studio Menu About Directions Instructors Social Justice & Inclusivity Blog Our Story What is Iyengar Certified?

If you need help deciding what class or membership is best for you, just call us at 510-270-0740 or or email [email protected] .     You will get your unique Zoom link 60 minutes before class. Please check your Promotions/Spam folders if you do not receive it. Email [email protected] if you need any help. Preparing for Your LIVE-ONLINE Class: Before class, go to zoom.us Install the app on your device. For the best experience you will want to join from a device that has a video camera and microphone so we can see and hear you. Before class, clear a space and have your mat and props available. If you don’t have yoga props, then have something that resembles them: for example you can use an actual belt or a belt tie and a regular chair or furniture in your home. Let your family or roommates know that you will be in session and ask if they can refrain from disturbing you for the duration OR invite your family and children to participate! Since you’re on mute, you won’t be disturbing anyone. To stay focused, turn off notifications and any devices that you aren’t using to view the class. 60 minutes before class you will get the unique zoom link. Click on that and you are in! If you have any problems getting your link or getting into class, please email [email protected] Please join the class at least 5-minutes early. That will give you time to settle in and meet the teacher. You will be automatically muted when you enter the zoom room – this helps with sound quality. You can unmute yourself whenever you would like. There is also a chat function where you can raise any questions or issues. If you would like the teacher to see your practice, then keep your video camera on. If you would like to practice privately, turn your video camera off. You will want to participate in the class using “speaker view” and “full screen”. You can also scroll through and see everyone else who is in the class with you by going to “gallery view.” Adeline Yoga Policies: All sales are final.

Stress Management. Community. Older adults are particularly receptive to the benefits of Iyengar Yoga. To stay active over time, the body needs to move. If we don’t move our bodies to stay strong, we may become prone to pain, injury and other niggles that get in the way of staying active. We work with people at all stages of life. Newly-retired, still working, sporty or not. People like you. For some, the kickstart that gets them going to yoga is an injury. Others want to recover more quickly post-surgery. Their doctor may recommend Yoga (many do). Some people come to us injury-free, just keen to stay fit and healthy. Before long, all these people start to see the benefits of Iyengar Yoga, way beyond recovery from injury. They get better movement in places that used to be stiff and sore. They move better. Then they feel better.   Weekly Offerings Every day we offer yoga classes geared toward those who are aged 50+. Our wide variety of classes include: • Yoga for Healthy Aging • Restorative Yoga • Pranayama • Yoga for Bone Health • Caring for Neck & Shoulder • Gentle Pace Weekly Schedule Private Sessions Yoga designed for you!

Book Your Session   The Student Experience: “When I began at Adeline, I did a lot of running and wanted to see if I could lessen the pain in my lower back and extend my running career into my 60s. I thought yoga could help me. I was looking for an Iyengar yoga studio because I was familiar with that type of yoga having taken a class many years ago. I was lucky to stumble on to Adeline. I went to one class and I was hooked – I always feel so much better after I go to class! In addition to easing the pain in my stiff joints, I like the mental clarity and calmness I get from the practice. For me, Adeline Yoga is a bit of a spiritual oasis. I love it when I can take some of that calmness into other areas of my life, like work. I also feel good about bringing members of my family into the yoga studio and introducing them to yoga. My brother and I are the two stiffest people in class, but we are getting more flexible and love yoga!” – Tom Horton FAQ Where can I learn more? Our new student page has a lot of info. Inbal is our New Student Coordinator and can walk you through everything. Just email her or set up a call here. How do I get started right now?

Sadhana Studies is a 9-month program that provides you with a complete immersion into the practices of Iyengar Yoga, including asana, pranayama, Ayurveda, anatomy, ethics, and practical yoga philosophy. This program is for experienced Iyengar Yoga students who feel ready to deepen their relationship with practice, study, and community. This is a high-impact offering for Iyengar Yoga students who are ready to expand into the fullest expression of themselves. There is no program quite like this in the world. At its core, the program is built around a clear, three-step learning process that supports students in developing a sustainable and meaningful yoga practice—one that can be returned to with confidence, curiosity, and steadiness over time. The 2026 program is now full. We have started a waitlist. REGISTER HERE FOR THE WAITLIST The three pillars of Sadhana Studies: Establishing a personal home practice Students learn a practical and supportive approach to developing a home practice. The emphasis is on consistency and knowledge so you have the confidence to roll out the mat—even on days when motivation is low, life feels full or you need a special practice. Immersive study of Yoga practices Immerse yourself in the Iyengar approach to asana, pranayama and yoga philosophy. Through weekly classes, weekend immersions, guided ho me practice sequences, and study prompts, students spend sustained time with both asana and various texts. Study and practice are woven together to support a deeper understanding of body, breath, and mind. Integration through community & mentorship Sadhana Studies is intentionally relational.
