This first week sequence is vastly different from Geeta's first week. Mr. Iyengar is introducing you to the core standing asanas and an inversion which vital to every practice. Geeta, on the other hand, wants to familiarize yourself with the basic arm/hand techniques that will be used almost throughout the other asanas. I think Geeta's sequence would be great for a complete beginner to Iyengar yoga and Iyengar's sequence is great for a more experienced practitioner. I'm curious as to how each of their sequences will unfold. I noticed that with each of their sequences, the amount of poses and the length of time increase generously over time. Therefore, I have incorporated props and variations of the asanas after attempting them the classic way.
