Pranayama and Ashtanga Yoga Retreat:
- develop the breath practice (Pranayama) -

The focus of these programs is to build on to the asana practice a regular and well informed practice of pranayama and meditation.  Pranayama uses the breath and the entire respiratory system to purify and strengthen the nerves which leads to greater control of the senses and a subsequent calmer and clearer mind, not just when sitting but throughout the day, when practiced consistently for a long time.  Here is the opportunity to be introduced and grow through these techniques in a supportive environment. Paul has practiced and been trained to a high level in these practices under one of the few remaining authorities in pranayama, O.P. Tiwari.  Tiwariji has only taught the complete pranayama to Paul and one other student.

The day will open with pranayama and meditation followed by the ashtanga practice.  In the afternoon will be a workshop to further explain the practices so better understanding can come followed by sessions on restorative asanas and pranayama.  In the evening after dinner will be a variety of programs followed by meditation.
