Yoga Study is not complete without the exploration and experience of Pranayama. The conscious regulation of breath is one of yoga’s most powerful tools to purify and discipline body and mind. However, it is also a subtle practice, so one must be cautious and knowledgeable in it’s application to fully benefit. Pranayama used the wrong way can create potential for harm.

 

This workshop will aim to give students or teachers the tools needed to apply the practice safely and will specifically focus on:

The Definition of Pranayama

The different components and techniques

How to plan a practice with pranayama

How to achieve different effects

The Power of Owning Your Yoga

September 25–27, 2009 (Friday–Sunday)

Fran Ubertini

 

Kripalu Center
www.kripalu.org

57 Interlaken Road
Stockbridge, MA 01262

1-800-741-7353

 

Yoga practice and its effects are highly individual and personal. Yoga has the power and potential to extend far beyond the physical realm, especially when its practice is tailored to your unique needs. The combination of asana (postures) with breath, sound, mudra, and meditation can create a deeper relationship to your spiritual core.

 

This experiential workshop will provide tools to help you transcend the physical realms and connect you more fully to yourself. In this weekend program, you will learn

 

· To consciously integrate the breath as a way to deepen the effect of asana

· How to influence the mind through pranayama techniques

· The use of chant and gesture (mudras) to enhance the spiritual reflection

   in your practice.

 

Discover how all these powerful tools can support your journey toward meditation. As T.K.V. Desikachar says in his book The Heart of Yoga, “Yoga serves the individual and does so through inviting transformation rather than by giving information.”

Asana practice and its benefits are most effective when it is part of an intelligent sequence process. The process must respect the abilities of the individual as well as the goal of the practice. “Vinyasa” is a concept that applies to all tools of yoga, either when practiced individually or combined.

 

A strong foundation of this concept is recommended for every teacher of yoga as well as serious practitioners so that effective and safe practices can evolve.

Intimately connect the practice of yoga to your personal goals through the science and art of sequencing. This refers not only to the order of postures, but also to the use of pranayama, sound, and meditation to create a coherent practice that transforms your intention into actuality. Skillfully arranging different elements of yoga practice results in an effective flow of energy and awareness that consistently supports your personal transformation.

 

This two-day experiential workshop will focus on moving from the body to your inner self. You will

Create and design sequences for a specific intention and learn how to adapt the sequences for therapeutic use

 

Experience different breathing techniques (pranayama) and the energetic effects they create

 

Go deeper into your practice with mantra, mudra, and meditation, actualizing the primary aim of yoga to quiet the mind and connect with your true nature.

Students and teachers at every level will leave with the tools needed to keep practices alive, dynamic, and individualized.

PERFECTLY REFINED, Sanskrit is the language of yoga. Anyone can resonate with Sanskrit's timeless sounds - and connect to words and ideas incredibly beautiful and profound.

REWARDS ARE MANY for those who take the time to see, hear and feel the power and elegance of Sanskrit. Yoga teachers and yoga teacher trainers particularly benefit from this study.

This weekend workshop will give you intimate familiarity with the unique points of resonance in your own palate that support Sanskrit's sacred sounds. And you’ll be firmly grounded in proper pronunciation of this ancient language.

Along the way you’ll learn the alphabet - itself a lovely chant - and you’ll receive the tools you need to explore your favorite sutras and chants in the beautiful script of Sanskrit, Devanaagari. ASI’s teaching method, developed over many years by Vyaas Houston, makes learning Sanskrit stress-free and FUN!

Jo Brill is one of the few teachers nationwide certified by and affiliated with the American Sanskrit Institute. She trained as a yoga teacher at Yoga for Well-Being® in Goshen, NY and is certified by the Krishnamacharya Healing and Yoga Foundation. Jo continues her yoga studies with Mia Azcue.

The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali

Presented by Fran Ubertini

 

November 18, 2007 (Sunday)

JULUKA YOGA STUDIO

591 Broadway
Westwood, NJ 07675
201-638-6828

2pm-5pm

 

Patanjali's Yoga Sutras are the most important source text for yoga. Although yoga has been equated with “asana” and used mainly for exercise, the Yoga Sutras tell us that yoga is actually a mental discipline. He gives fascinating insight into the human mind and how it works. As students and teachers we can use this text to understand not just the practice of yoga, but ourselves. This workshop will highlight key sutras from book one and two. We will learn to chant the sutras and expound on their meaning and relevance for our study of yoga and ultimately our own spiritual transformation.

AUGUST 24-27, 2007
Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health, Stockbridge, Massachusetts

A workshop on Yoga Beyond Āsana: The Inner Journey presented by Fran Ubertini at Kripalu's annual conference for yoga teachers. This year's conference theme was Onto the Mat and Into the World: Yoga for Positive Change.

Yoga practice and its effects are uniquely personal. Workshop participants experienced the more subtle aspects of practice using breath and movement, prāṇāyāma, chant and ritual for their own inner journey or that of their students. Practice involved the integration of body, breath and mind, allowing us to go beyond the external to the internal.

During this program participants experienced and learned:

  • Linking breath and movement.

  • Applying sound to āsana and prāṇāyāma.
