It is an essential and inspiring workshop for existing Thai Yoga Practitioners, Yoga Teachers and body workers to combine anatomy and TYM techniques that deepen the understanding of the breath and therefore allow practitioners to deepen their expertise.
We come into the world with a single breath and in the same way we leave it. To stay alive, all we need is the breath. As babies we know how to breathe but as we grow, parental and societal conditioning alter the quality of how we breathe. So many people in modern life suffer respiratory dysfunction.
But we are HOW we breathe
The way we breathe signals to the body what to expect:
when we shallow, rapid breathe, we remain in fight or flight, adrenal mode, which is toxic to the body.
Deep, relaxed breathing activates the parasympathetic system, our body relaxes knowing it is safe to repair, rest and digest.
ThIs course is open to all, but you will benefit most if you have already some bodywork experience. Ideal for Thai yoga massage practitioners, yoga teachers, massage therapists or anybody who want to improve their wellbeing and understanding of therapeutic breathing.
