be designed for a group in a series of five to ten sessions. Each series
will support short term

on specific themes to address the needs of participants. The following
themes are examples of how we focus on specific themes to address the needs
of participants.

WORKSHOPS
Workshops are offered at the Introductory, Intermediate, and Advanced
levels. This is a good format for participants who are unable to commit to
weekly classes for any length of time.
The one-day Basic-Principle Workshops are designed to expose participants
to the basic principles of the Experience of Breath. Participation in all of
the Basic Principle Workshops will introduce participants to the Experience
of Breath and build a foundation for the more
intermediate and advanced workshops.
These Basic-Principle Workshops can be taken individually or in any
combination:
- Workshop A: The Natural Breath - A Breath that Comes and Goes on its
Own
- Workshop B: Developing and Connecting the Breath Spaces
- Workshop C: The Breath Cycle
- Workshop D: The Unifying Breath
- Workshop E: Responding with Breath
- Workshop F: Connecting with the World Through Breath
- Workshop G: Find Your Self in Your Breath
- Workshop H: Developing & Connecting Breath & Voice
Workshop A: The Natural Breath – A Breath that Comes and Goes on its Own
In this workshop participants open the door to an experience of the
natural breath - a breath that comes and goes on its own. Through breath and
movement participants explore ways for allowing the breath to come and go on
its own, moving away from patterns of manipulation and control that may be
restricting their breathing. As participants move away from controlling
their breath to allowing it, they will develop an awareness for sustaining
the sensation of their natural breath while they are in movement.
Workshop B: Developing and Connecting the Breath Spaces
In this workshop participants begin to identify three of the fundamental
breath spaces, Lower, Middle, and Upper. The day is designed to build
participant awareness of the sensation of movement of breath in each of the
three breath spaces. Through breath and movement participants explore the
quality of breath in each space and discover the resource of the breath in
each of the spaces as they become aware of the connection between the three
spaces. As participants develop an awareness of the connection between the
three spaces they explore the movement of breath through each of these
spaces with each breath cycle.
In this workshop participants begin to discover the breath cycle by
experiencing the three fundamental properties of the breath cycle
individually and as a functioning whole. The day is designed to build
participant awareness of the Inhale, Exhale, and Pause. Through breath and
movement participants explore the characteristics that are represented by
each of these properties and begin to recognize the patterns within their
own breath cycle that contribute to their individual experience of breath.
They will discover how their individual patterns in the breath cycle
contribute to any restrictions or limitations they may be currently
experiencing in their breathing. The breath is discovered as a resource for
transformation as participants build an awareness for the breath cycle and
begin to notice how each part of the breath cycle participates in the shift
of patterns.
These one-day workshops are designed to build on the experience of breath
that has developed in the Basic-Principle workshops. Participants must have
completed either an equivalent of 12 weekly classes or 4 of the one-day
Basic-Principle workshops before attending a one-day Intermediate workshop.
