IYENGAR YOGA
Developed by yoga master B.K.S. Iyengar more than 60 years ago, Iyengar yoga promotes strength, flexibility,
endurance and balance through coordinated breathing and poses that require precise body alignment.
Equipment like blankets, straps and blocks help the less flexible and also distinguishes Iyengar from other types
of yoga. Although Iyengar incorporates the traditional postures, or asanas, that make up the broader category
of hatha yoga, the props revolutionized yoga by enabling everyone – even the elderly, sick, and disabled, to
practice. Because of its slow pace, attention to detail, and use of props, Iyengar yoga can be especially good if
you’re recovering from an injury. No class Nov. 29.

SOUTHWEST
EXPLORATIONS
Travel near or far for a wonderful exploration of the
Southwest. We also teach about the region in a classroom,
where we look at ancient and contemporary cultures.
SENSATIONAL NEW MEXICO MURDERS
New Mexico did not become a U.S. state for many
years. One reason for this was the violence. The West
was already known as the Wild West. In New Mexico,
violence mixed with economics, greed and politics to
become part of the culture. And the culture of violence
lasted much longer in New Mexico than elsewhere.
Among the many grisly murders, we will discuss John
Tunstall leading to the murder of Lincoln County
Sheriff Brady, the Territorial Supreme Court Justice in
La Fonda, the misadventures of the Archbishop Lamy’s
nephew, the shooting of the Santa Fe sheriff and more.
