‘Ashtanga practice is a breathing practice… the rest is just bending.’
Shri K Pattabhi Jois

The breath is the key to the the realm of tranquility and power and with it we can regulate and control our nervous system. The breath is the door between our body and our mind and the portal between meditation and asana practice. Breathing is our most fundamental and vital act.

May the 5th Ashtanga workshop with Cecile |
|
|
Inverted postures :the internal Alignment through breath and bandhas
with Cecile
In the inverted postures like Sirsasana (headstand) or Sarvangasana (shoulderstand) the interdependent relation between breath and bandhas brings an intelligent dialogue between front and back so the natural internal alignment of the postures can unfold on the thread of the breath. Even if some of those inversions can be sometimes challenging, with the use of support they help to realign, renew , reorganized the body, smooth the nervous system and become restorative.
Two different approach which underline the influence of the breath on the body and the mind
For students with at least one year regular yoga practice and some experience of the Ashtanga Vinyasa system.

8 Saturday's meditation workshops from 12h to 14h
This will be the second workshop
The basis of MBSR is mindfulness, which Jon Kabat-Zinn defines as, "a moment-to-moment, non-judgmental awareness,". Through meditation individuals increase their self-awareness, which leads to a greater unity between the mind and body
Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is a structured complementary medicine program that uses mindfulness in an approach to treat different conditions. It is thought to be effective for treating a variety of ailments including alleviating pain and improving physical and emotional well being for individuals suffering from a variety of diseases and disorders. The MBSR program was established by Jon Kabat-Zinn at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. While mindfulness has its roots in Buddhist teachings, the program itself is not spiritually based. Those who practice MBSR range in age, health, and beliefs and it is made clear that the psychological principles of mindfulness can be practiced by anyone.

Ashtanga Yoga is an ancient system of Yoga with an unique way of vinyasa linking togehter movement and breath. The movement through a set sequence of poses (asanas) helps to realign the body and is responsable for creating internal heat; this allows the blood to circulate through all the joints and internal organs, removing impurities, which will exit the body through sweat. The sweat is both cleansing and purifying. The result of releasing toxins from muscules and organs is a healthy tone and flexible body.
Breathing is vital to the practice of yoga because it helps to control the mind; if the breath is agitated the mind is agitated, if the breath is steady the the mind become focus and calm. The breath is the key to this system of yoga. It is called ujaji and its sound, volume and rhythm are very powerful. The three core techniques of Vinyasa, breath, bandhas (energy locks) and dristis (fous points), when applied together, bring about the physical and meditative aspects of Ashtanga Yoga.
These principles underly the practice of Ashtanga Yoga and are responsable for creating a system that is known for its graceful, flowing sequences of transitions and postures ''woven on the thread of the breath''.
