Join me for the February four week course of pranayama practice. Each month will explore the sequence of practice as outlined by BKS Iyengar in his book Light on Pranayama. We begin at the beginning. Over the course of the year we will explore ujjayi breath (victory breath), viloma (interupted breaths), antara and bhaya khumbaka (breath retentions) as instructed in Light on Pranayama. Recordings will be available for one week after each class for your practice. Please note that THIS MONTH the class on FEBRUARY 26th will be from 9-9.45am EST.

The importance of pranayama lies in learning rhythmic, uniform, slow, and harmonious breathing techniques. By controlling the breath, one can control bodily functions, develop a connection between body, mind, and soul, and improve physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Pranayama is more than just a set of breathing exercises; it affects the nervous system and overall health.
