Pause for a moment and feel the power of a single breath. This module dives deep into the transformative art of conscious breathing. From the mechanics of respiration, the history and evolution of breathing, to classical pranayama and modern breathwork, we’ll explore how breath shapes the body, mind, and spirit.
You’ll master a variety of breathing techniques, uncover the anatomy behind the magic, and even take your first steps into Sanskrit, connecting to yoga’s roots. By the end, you’ll be ready to teach pranayama classes, design programs for your students, and deepen your own sadhana.
Step into this journey and let your breath become your greatest teacher.

- Pranayama Sadhana: Two daily practices and a 21-day pre-training routine to prepare.
