Pranayama (breathing)
[trustist-reviewer widget=”TR”]
As discussed in Junior training, breathing has as much significance as asanas in yoga. This is seen in the Eight Limbs. We practice lots of breathing techniques with this age but importantly we also explain how pranayama and asana are intrinsically linked and how one effects the other. This doesnt mean breathing can’t still be fun, but we are explaining its significance to encourage them to think about their breathing and how it could be used outside of the yoga class. We still use sound with the breath too, and we can discuss the effects that the sounds makes to them physically and emotionally.
You can deepen a stretch, balance better or simply perform an asana more accurately by using the breath. Equally, you can use movement to improve the breath.
