6:00–7:30 PM

In this series of classes, we will explore a routine of postures, breathing exercises and

supported poses that purify the subtle energy channels of the body, thus allowing the

prana (life energy) to flow freely throughout. Nadi Shodhana, often called “alternate

nostril breathing,” will be our primary breathing exercise after yoga postures. The

Sanskrit name “Nadi Shodhana” translates to “energy clearing”—purifying the subtle

energy channels or nadis thus allowing the prana to flow freely throughout the body.

This regular practice strengthens the respiratory system, balances the nervous system,

and relieves nervousness, stress, fatigue and headaches while purifying the blood. The

mind become peaceful, calm, and at ease.

The poses include back bends, forward bends, twists, hip-openers, and some inversions,

as this combination of poses encourages stream of subtle energy movement. This series

is recommended for students who have practiced yoga for a minimum of one year.

Fee: $16 per class or $82 for pre-registration of entire series (6 classes)
