About the Event

In ancient yogic philosophy, breath was drawn to channel subtle energy, to cleanse the spirit and to lengthen the lifespan - yet, why is breath still interesting in modern yoga practice? And how can we utilize these ancient breath techniques to our benefit today?

If you wish to obtain a calm breath throughout the entirety of a yoga class, this event will give you tools to understand and improve your breath technique and unique breath pattern.

This event will include lectures, workshops and practices of breath and prānic energy as we look into eastern (yoga philosophy) and western (medicin) perspectives of breathing.

What you get from this workshop

— ancient and modern breath techniques — techniques to start your home practice — tools to track your breathing progress — awareness on challenges and strengths with your breathing during āsana classes — why exercise the breath according to eastern yogic philosophy — why exercise the breathe according to western medicine — awareness on the connection between prāṇa, prāṇāyāma (breath exercise) and dhyāna (meditation)

Who can join

— beginners, you will be asked to read 2 pages (A4) of theory and exercise 2 breathing techniques before the workshop. — experienced yogis, you will have the option to read the theory and exercise the prānāyāma before the workshop. — certified yoga teachers, you will have the option to read the theory and exercise the prānāyāma as well as ask leading questions prior to the workshop.

Learning environment

— gathering in the spirit of curiosity with an accepting, uplifting and inclusive vibe to learn with and from each other. — learning with āhimsa (non-violent behaviour) with respect for the totality of the group. — learning with a no shame policy, supporting the idea of “the more we learn, we understand how little we know”, rather than undermining lack of knowledge.
