This class focuses on integrating breath and movement in Ashtanga Yoga, with an emphasis on understanding and refining diaphragmatic and ujjayi breathing techniques. Through detailed exploration of transitions, foundational poses, and "set-up" positions, students will learn how to connect breath with movement to enhance their practice. The session includes practical demonstrations, guided exercises, and discussions on how to use breath as a tool for grounding, alignment, and accessing deeper layers of the practice. Key concepts include the dynamics of breath control, engaging bandhas (energetic locks), and cultivating awareness of natural speed in transitions. The class is designed to deepen both the technical and experiential aspects of practice, making it accessible and transformative for practitioners of all levels.
