2-Hour Yoga Exploration of Asana, Breath & Meditation
Join us for a transformative 2-hour workshop with Akshey Koushal, designed for students ready to go beyond the surface and explore yoga as a complete, embodied path.
This session features a challenging yet informative asana practice that strengthens physical awareness while directing attention inward. The posture work will help prepare both body and mind for the subtler practices of pranayama (breathwork), pratyahara (sense withdrawal), dharana (concentration), and dhyana (meditation). We’ll conclude with a guided relaxation aimed at offering a glimpse of samadhi—a state of absorption, stillness, or deep connection.
Together, we’ll explore how asana, pranayama, pratyahara, dharana, dhyana, and even a moment of samadhi are not separate steps but interconnected aspects of a unified, lived experience of yoga.
In this workshop, students will:
Engage in a strong, focused asana practice to guide breath and attention to help our pranayama breathing practice
Prepare body and mind for deeper stillness and receptivity
Use breathing techniques to draw awareness inward
Experience the limbs of yoga as an integrated whole—not a ladder of progression
This workshop is ideal for students with a regular yoga practice who are curious about how movement, breath, and meditation come together in the deeper study of yoga.
