Breath is one of the most powerful tools we have for restoring balance to body, mind, and spirit. In this class, we’ll explore pranayama, the ancient yogic art of conscious breathing. While often confused with modern “breathwork,” pranayama is distinct. It is a time-honored set of practices rooted in yoga’s wisdom traditions, designed to cultivate vitality (prana), sharpen awareness, and regulate the nervous system.

You’ll be guided step-by-step through accessible breathing techniques, with clear instruction, modifications, and contraindications offered along the way. The class is taught from a trauma-informed perspective, so you can engage at your own pace and choose what feels safe and supportive for you.

What makes this offering unique is its grounding in the holistic path of yoga. These breathing practices are not simply tools for release or intensity. They are a doorway into steadiness, clarity, and balance, and can support you in daily life well beyond the mat.

Come breathe, restore, and reconnect to your inner vitality.
