Pranayama is the art of breathing. Prāna, life force, breath, or vital energy, and "āyāma", to lengthen or extend, is breath regulation and the control of life force. It is the fourth limb of yoga and the gateway to the inner world. This workshop is designed for students with an existing asana practice who are interested in beginning to practice Pranayama or refine their current pranayama practice. We will cover the asanas commonly used to prepare the body for breath work as well as the basic pranayamas for beginning practice.  
Space is limited. Preregistration is encouraged.
