About the class

Join Jambo to enjoy an afternoon of working and playing with breath and balance.

There are numerous yoga practices that are often overlooked, including pranayama and meditation. With the ongoing growth of yoga, it's possible to become uncertain about the true essence of the practice. Have you ever felt anxious about your place within the yoga community throughout these changes?

There will be a range of workshops and play-shops available to delve into the newly developed branches of yoga. These sessions will allow us to become more self-assured and empowered as yoga practitioners.

* Sat PM : Breath Work and Pranayama

Explore the difference between 'Breath Work' and 'Pranayama'.

Although 'Breath Work' is a translation from Chinese 'Qi Gong', both practices have roots in traditional yoga and pranayama. As a yoga practitioner, it is important to understand that we are essentially breath work practitioners due to the nature of pranayama practices.

This class will focus on two pranayama sequences that have been studied for their benefits, as described in traditional yoga texts. The first sequence has been shown to aid in managing anxiety and improving concentration. The second sequence is particularly popular among those who practice manifestation work.
