Sublime Aspects of Pranayama
David will cover the essential elements of a breathing practice including ujjayi (victorious breath), viloma (interrupting the breath), and khumbhaka (retaining the breath). You'll learn how to set up both a supine and a seated position for your breathing practice. Through this class you will gain an understanding of how to begin a separate pranayama practice, but perhaps more importantly you will learn to better see how the study of breathing is meant to be at the heart of the asana practice.
12:30pm-2pm
Connections Between Breath, Prana, Karma, and Dharma
This talk will center around interpreting passages from Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, the Bhagavad Gita, Hatha Pradipika, and other texts—highlighting such themes as summoning courage to maintain a daily practice, walking your own unique chosen path, developing skill in risk taking, and exploring the role of breath in helping you to act skillfully and awaken the life force within.
