OUR APPROACH

 

Although yoga is so well known in the world - the pranayama gems are still hidden. The yogic approach to the breath comprehends much more than just the intake of oxygen in our bodies.

It goes beyond the techniques of learning how to control the breath - with a deeper understanding of Pranayama we can calm and balance our mind, cool or heat our body and learn to manage our Life Force.

The sentence “Energy follows Awareness” becomes experience. Start the journey that will, eventually, lead you to tap in to the Truth of your real nature, your true Self.

This advanced training is open for everyone to discover the world of energy that lives in all beings of the universe.

It is designed for anyone who wants to learn techniques and skills in pranayama for their own daily practice as well as for yoga teachers who are already experienced in the mastery of asanas and meditation.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

Tools that are in you

It requires no previous experience, no special equipment, can be done in every space and every virtually.

Breathing is for everybody
