Breath control in Yoga practices, inspired by the teachings of T.K.V. Desikachar
with Heather Robinson
For T.K.V. Desikachar, focus on the breath was the most fundamental part of yoga practice, yet it is so easy for us to take it for granted. In this presentation, Heather Robinson will present some models and approaches unique to the teachings of Desikachar, exploring how conscious control of the breath in Yoga practice can inspire improvements to practice, and thus in the ways we teach.
T.K.V. Desikachar (1938 – 2016) is a renowned yoga teacher, the author of iconic texts including ‘The Heart of Yoga’, and founder of the Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram in Chenai, India. His teaching, directly and via some of his key students, have been influential for Heather.
