Focus

All of the poses included in this class help to remove tension from the body generally, but the diaphragm region specifically. Releasing this area of the body enables you to more effectively observe your breath whilst staying in a yoga pose. This class guides you through a series of poses that have a calming effect on your breath.

You begin with some adaptations of familiar poses making sure that your chest is as open as possible. The poses are supported where possible so as to minimise muscular hardness. You eventually head in the direction of pranayama via some restorative reclining poses. This class will have a calming and rejuvenating effect on the breath, mind and body.
