Less is More-Essentials of Breathing
**This workshop is open to students of all levels** The paradox of breathing is that taking a free, full breath is the result of relaxation, not effort. By doing less, you can achieve the fullest range within your breath and find greater ease in everything you do, from athletic movement to complete rest. In fact, the ability to breathe deeply and fully has tremendous benefits in combating insomnia and/or anxiety. In this workshop we will explore the essential characteristics of effortless breathing and apply those principles to a breath-centered yoga practice. This is also an opportunity to clarify your understanding of the breathing exercises (pranayama) that you may have encountered during yoga class. What does Ujjayi breathing really do? What’s the point of Kapalabhati? We will address these questions through experience and learning how your body works in the breathing process. **Pre-registration is strongly suggested.

This workshop is open to all Level 2 or higher students** No matter what the sport, the body is at its peak performance when balance is achieved between strength and power, flexibility and grace. In this workshop, specific asanas will be introduced that strengthen your core and help to stabilize, while others will focus on developing longer, leaner leg muscles resulting in a more fluid stride. Learn new breathing techniques that will increase both breath capacity and endurance. And become better informed about the different types of stretching that should be done during training, the day of an event, and for the recovery period. Come learn the tools to begin developing your body into a more efficient and agile vehicle, while keeping your breath and mind calm, steady and focused. This workshop is especially for those planning to run the NY Marathon in November or for avid runners of all kinds. **Pre-registration is strongly suggested.
