"When people ask me what I ‘do’ or what ‘kind’ of yoga I teach, I often tell them that I simply teach people how to breathe. I help restore the natural, calming breath within them. I then teach people to build asana (the physical poses) from the breath, and how to move, create, release, expand and heal with the breath. The breath is the priority, foundation, core and teacher of the practice. It is a companion and one that is invited rather than commanded. The quality of the breath reflects the quality of our experience in body and mind: compressed, imbalanced, shallow, or expansive, rhythmic and nourishing. The breath calms the movement of the mind and opens and soothes the body."
