Body, Breath and Bandha (A Vinyasa Workshop) - The Journey is the Destination
by Viviane De Doncker
Saturday, 24 July 2010
9.00am to 11.00am (Part 1)
11.30am to 1.30pm (Part 2)

Vinyasa Yoga is the intelligent progression through a sequence of postures in a continuous flow of movement. Each movement in Vinyasa Yoga is done in harmony with the breath, and supported by the use of Bandhas.

Bandhas are muscular and energetic adjustments that generate and transform the internal energies, which has a profound effect on the muscular body, the skeleton and the central nervous system. The use of Breath and Bandha is the most important difference between the asanas of Hatha Yoga and gymnastic exercises.

This workshop offers a gentle introduction into Vinyasa, and gives newcomers to the practice an in-depth exploration to the use of Bandhas and proper breathing techniques. The workshop is suitable for beginners, and will include more intricate variations for more experienced practitioners.

Forward Folding postures purify the internal organs, nourish the brain, lengthen the legs and spine, soothe the nervous system, slow the heart-beat, and bring on a deep sense of calm and peace. When we release the muscles in the back of the body, we have the opportunity to let go of old patterns we no longer need!
