The ancients gave us the practices of pranayama, bandhas and mudras to bring vitality to our energy system. Using the Hatha Yoga Pradipika as a guide, this class is an exploration of theory and practice. As we deepen our understanding we will:

  • Study the five aspects of the vital body (prana, apana, vyana udana, samana)
  • Explore types of breathing, breathing ratios and developing breath capacity
  • Develop skills to teach asana with emphasis on breath as the medium for movement.
  • Examine the science of adapting breathing patterns in asana to produce different effects.
  • Explore the effects of breathing techniques, bandhas, and mudras and how to incorporate them into a balanced practice.
