We concluded our workshop with Senior Iyengar Yoga Teacher on Sunday. I am still reflecting on the teachings and our time together, but feeling supreme gratitude to our sangha.

When I set out to open up an Iyengar Yoga studio in South Central Pennsylvania two years ago, I was the sole Iyengar Yoga teacher in our community. By the grace of the guru, I have now been joined by a fabulous cohort of teachers and aspiring teacher

This past weekend felt like a dream realized. When we practice together in community we are transformed together. The the divisions between us cease. I was reminded of this mantra from the Upanishads.

Om pūrṇam adaḥ pūrṇam idam
Pūrṇāt pūrṇam udacyate
Pūrṇasya pūrṇam ādāya
Pūrṇam evāvaśiṣyate
Om shāntiḥ shāntiḥ shāntiḥ

That is full, this is full.
From the full, the full arises.
Taking the full from the full,
Fullness alone remains.
Peace, peace, peace.

Just a few spots remain in our upcoming weekend workshop with guest teacher Holly Kostura, CIYT Level 3 and Director of the Iyengar Yoga Center of the Lehigh Valley!

🌸 SPRING AWAKENING THROUGH PRACTICE: From Feeling Stuck to Moving with Clarity and Energy 🌸

"Arise! Awaken! Seek out the best teachers, learn well, for the path is precise—revealed through discernment and sustained attention—so declare the Wise."
— Katha Upanishad

As we emerge from winter, it's natural to feel dull, stuck, or scattered. This ancient teaching reminds us that awakening comes through attentive, skillful practice—and spring offers the perfect energy for renewal.

Over three thoughtfully designed sessions, Holly will guide us through standing poses, sun salutations, core work, backbends, and restorative practices to reawaken the body, steady the mind, and restore continuity between movement, breath, and awareness.

WORKSHOP SCHEDULE:

📅 SATURDAY, APRIL 18
Session 1 | 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM "Waking the Body, Gathering the Mind"
• Standing poses and open twists to shake off heaviness and re-establish steady focus

Session 2 | 3:00 - 4:30 PM "Mobilizing Energy, Purifying Action"
• Forward extensions and introductory arm balances to build momentum through purposeful, well-supported movement

📅 SUNDAY, APRIL 19
Session 3 | 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM "Integrating Effort, Abiding in Clarity"
• Backward extensions (supported and independent) to integrate and sustain the energy cultivated throughout the weekend

Hidden Wisdom is a little bit, well... hidden. 😊 But that's one of the things we love most about our studio: centrally located, yet tucked away in a quiet, private space — your own little sanctuary in the middle of downtown Gettysburg.

If you're planning your first visit, this quick tour covers everything you need to know: where to park, how to find us, and the best spots to grab coffee after class (we're looking at you, Waldo's & Company ☕).

Not local? No problem! We offer hybrid classes so you can practice with us live from wherever you call home. 🏡 Register at the link in the comments and we'll see you on the mat — in-studio or online!

What sets Iyengar Yoga apart? ✨ There are many styles of yoga — but few with roots as deep, a method as precise, or as thoughtfully designed to meet students exactly where they are. Read on to discover why we're proud to be part of the Iyengar tradition. 🙏

1. A LIVING LINEAGE
B.K.S. Iyengar — the "Michelangelo of yoga" — is widely regarded as the world's foremost yoga teacher. His pioneering work brought yoga to the West, and his book Light on Yoga has guided generations of students. Following the passing of his daughter, Geeta, who also made significant contributions to the method, his legacy lives on today through his son Prashant, granddaughter Abhijata, and a global community of practitioners.

2. DEEP ROOTS IN TRADITION
Rooted in Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, B.K.S. Iyengar built his method upon the ancient traditions of Ashtanga (eight-fold) yoga — a framework as relevant today as it was centuries ago. Iyengar Yoga transcends mere physical exercise, offering students a practical, experiential, and deeply personal path inward, and its ancient wisdom lives on in every class, every sequence, and every breath.

3. HIGHLY SKILLED TEACHERS
Certified Iyengar Yoga Teachers (CIYTs) undergo years — not hours — of intensive training and mentorship, earning their certification through rigorous written and practical assessments. Their expert sequencing builds physical health and mental stability, ensuring steady progress over time. With precise instruction, sharp observation, clear demonstration, and the strategic use of props, CIYTs make yoga accessible to students of all ages, body types, and experience levels.

What if everything you needed for a meaningful home yoga practice was already in your house?

Props — whether traditional or improvised — cultivate alignment, build stability, and make yoga accessible across every stage of life, whether you're experiencing fatigue, pregnant, menstruating, aging, or recovering from illness or injury.

BKS Iyengar notes that the use of props serves to increase the duration of stay in an asana, build confidence, improve alignment, increase range of motion, and can help an achieve an asana that may not be possible otherwise.

You don't need a fully stocked home studio to practice meaningfully. Here are five poses and the furniture and every day household items that can support them:

1. PAVAN MUKTASANA — Use a long bench (or two chairs), bolsters, pillows, or folded/rolled blankets or towels to support the abdomen. Take additional height under the forehead as needed to ensure the head remains in line with the spine and does not drop below the shoulders.

2. CHATUSH PADASANA — Use a bench or coffee table to achieve this strengthening asana. With the shoulders resting on the support, allow the head to release and cervical spine to lengthen. Use a yoga strap, belt, necktie, or rolled hand towel to hold the feet.

3. UTTHITA ARDHA PADMANASA — Standing on a yoga block, short step stool, or stack of sturdy books, support the whole of the bent leg on the counter at or below hip height. Over time, bring the bent leg knee in line with the hip and work to extend forward.

4. ARDHA UTTANASANA — With feet apart, extend forward from the pelvic joint and rest the trunk and head on the table. You can also extend the arms forward to hold the table. Take enough height under the head so that it remains in line with the spine and does not drop below the shoulders. Prolonged sitting compresses the spine and tightens the back muscles. Practicing Ardha Uttanasana this way helps counteract this by broadening the lower back and lengthening the spine.

5. ARDHA CHANDRASANA — Use a countertop to support the back leg, and add folded blankets or towels under the foot to ensure it remains at hip height. Press the hand into a yoga block, stack of sturdy books, or a soup can to open the chest.

Understanding how to use props properly makes all the difference, and that's best learned under the guidance of a Certified Iyengar Yoga Instructor. Come join us at Hidden Wisdom Yoga Studio — we'd love to help you bring the benefits of a supported practice into your everyday life. 🙏

Walking on two legs comes naturally to us, but balancing on one requires us to look inward, trust our own abilities, and have faith in ourselves. The will to simply achieve the balance and not fall over can overpower the experience of any given asana — and we find ourselves inadvertently creating less stability (sthira) and less ease (sukha).

Initiated by fear of losing your balance, the effort to hang on triggers the "fight or flight" response in our sympathetic nervous system, and an asana performed with steadiness, ease, and a "benevolence of spirit" eludes us.

Come and learn the necessary tools for stabilizing the earth bound foot, leg, and hip in the one-legged poses that challenge us. The stability created helps us learn how to then extend, bend, and revolve the trunk while maintaining balance and harmony — all while standing on one leg.

As we progress from simpler poses to the more complex, we will first incorporate the use of support to integrate how the "prop" educates us to feel confidence and grace to come in and out of these challenging yet freeing family of asanas.

Join Nicolo "Nicky" Fonte, CIYT Level 2, for:
