Āsana is the Sanskrit word that we translate as Seat (posture) with full and relaxed Breath (awareness). Expressed in general terms Asana denotes a specific position which can be held in a relaxed and comfortable manner for a long period of time. In the 2nd Century before Christ, Patanjali wrote down the principles of Yoga practice in the “Yoga Sutras” (aphorisms). He named only the meditation posture “Asana” and the physical postures he termed “Yoga Vyayam”. However, in common usage the dynamic Yoga exercises also became known as Asanas.

Asanas are beneficial for the muscles, joints, cardiovascular system, nervous system and lymphatic system, as well as the mind, psyche and Chakras (energy centres). They are psychosomatic exercises, which strengthen and balance the entire nervous system and harmonise and stabilise the practitioner’s state of mind. The effects of these exercises are a sense of contentment, clarity of mind, relaxation and a feeling of inner freedom and peace.

The system “Yoga in Daily Life” is designed in such a way that the body is gradually and systematically prepared, leading from simple preparatory exercises towards the more advanced and difficult Asanas. Periods of relaxation are included at the beginning and end of each Yoga class, as well as between the individual exercises. By developing the ability to relax, the feeling for one's own body is deepened. Physical and mental relaxation are prerequisites for the correct performance of all Yoga exercises and it is only in this way that the effects of the Asanas completely unfold.

The breath plays an important role in the Asanas. With coordination of breath and movement, the Yoga practice becomes harmonious, the breath deepens of its own accord and the body’s circulation and metabolism are stimulated. Use of the breath greatly enhances muscle relaxation by concentrating on tense areas of the body and consciously relaxing those parts with each exhalation.

As most people are in the habit of breathing quite shallow, inadequately filling the lungs, the Full Yoga Breath is practiced in “Yoga in Daily Life”. Correct breathing is fundamental for the body’s optimum metabolic function. With regular practice, the Full Yoga Breath becomes the habitual and natural way of breathing. Slower and deeper breaths improve circulation, nerve function and one’s whole physical condition. It also develops a calm, clear mind.

Hatha yoga is een zachte fysieke vorm van yoga, waarbij men het lichaam gebruikt. Dit kan op een intensieve manier gebeuren, maar ook op een meer ontspannen wijze. Eigenlijk zijn alle andere vormen van yoga, die Yogaroom aanbiedt, afgeleiden van hatha yoga. In alle lessen worden lichaam en geest door middel van (soms intensieve) houdingen getraind. Door bewust met het lichaam en de ademhaling bezig te zijn (5-10 ademhalingen per houding), wordt het lichaam gezonder en neemt het bewustzijn toe. De fysieke houdingen zorgen voor een toename van kracht flexibiliteit, en een gezonder lichaam. De ademhaling speelt een essentiële rol bij hatha yoga, omdat de ademhaling invloed heeft op het hele lichaam. Een juiste ademhaling heeft een positief effect op het hele lichaam.

Hatha yoga is a gentle physical form of yoga that uses the body. This can be done in an intensive way, but also in a more relaxed way. Actually, all other forms of yoga offered by Yogaroom are derivatives of hatha yoga. In all classes body and mind are trained through (sometimes intensive) postures. By consciously working with the body and breathing (5-10 breaths per posture), the body becomes healthier and awareness increases. The physical postures provide an increase in strength, flexibility, and a healthier body. Breathing plays an essential role in hatha yoga, as breathing affects the entire body. Proper breathing has a positive effect on the entire body.

In een Yin yoga les worden de houdingen (passief, zittend en liggend) langer vastgehouden dan in elke andere les. Omdat het allemaal houdingen zijn waarin het lichaam kan ontspannen, word je niet alleen leniger, maar kun je ook makkelijker loslaten. Ook veel liefhebbers van yang(actieve) lessen, gaan graag naar een yin les om de balans te behouden. In deze les kun je diep leren ontspannen , openen en verzachten in bindweefsel. In deze les worden klankschalen en andere geluidseffecten gebruikt.

Breathework Pranayam is lang geleden door yogi’s in India ontworpen om door de Kosha lagen (lichaamslagen en patronen) heen te breken en zo fysieke, mentale, emotionele en fysiologische spanning te doorbreken. Om contentment en ontspanning in het lichaam, geest en zenuwstelsel te creëren . Breathework Pranayam biedt verschillende ademwerk technieken waarbij we diep verschonen en ontspannen. Zittend of liggend toegankelijk voor iedereen. Bij zwangerschap of cardiovasculaire klachten maak het bij docent bekend vooraf om aangepaste methodes uitgelegd te krijgen. Eet niet zwaar voor de les.

In een Yin & Yang yogales werken we met beide kwaliteiten doordat actieve, dynamische bewegingen (Yang) afgewisseld worden met verstillende houdingen (Yin) die net als in de Yin lessen langer aangehouden worden. De Yang in de bewegingen is gericht op de spieren en zorgt voor een krachtig vitaal lichaam. De Yin houdingen richten zich meer op het dieper liggende bindweefsel rondom gewrichten en organen en brengen je in contact met de stilte in jezelf. Zo ontstaat er een gezonde balans tussen lichaam en geest.
------------------------------------------------------
In a Yin & Yang yoga class we work with both qualities, active, dynamic movements (Yang) are alternated with tranquil postures (Yin) that are held longer. The Yang in the movements is aimed at the muscles and ensures a powerful vital body. The Yin postures focus more on the deeper connective tissue around joints and organs and bring you into contact with the silence within yourself. This creates a healthy balance between body and mind.

Meditatie gaat niet over het worden van een ander persoon, een nieuw persoon of zelfs een beter persoon. Het gaat om training in bewustzijn en het krijgen van een gezond gevoel voor perspectief. Je probeert je gedachten of gevoelens niet uit te schakelen. Je leert ze zonder oordeel te observeren. En uiteindelijk zul je ze misschien ook beter gaan begrijpen.
