A YOGA POSTURE IS A BREATHING PRACTICE

Breathing is one of the most important limbs and the essence of the Yoga Ashtanga rendering it as meditation in motion.
As you move through the sequence of asanas, you will take time to explore in depth, the breathing technique which is the foundation and the reason behind a yoga posture. (healing, rhythm and steadiness of the mind depend on the breath quality). In this class, you will also benefit from the emphasis on alignment and hands on adjustments. The session will close with a chanting practice.
