It’s with great honour to announce that Indian Yoga teacher Vinay Kumar, creator of the Prana Vashya Yoga Shala in Mysore, will be coming to Berlin for the second time. During the 4 day Intensive he will teach his signature Prana Vashya dynamic vinyasa sequence, Pranayama as well as his renowned Backbending class.

Prana means breath, considered as a life-giving force. Vashya means capable of being subdued, controllable, governable. And the term dynamic means to be in constant change or action. At Prana Vashya Yoga, the emphasis is on the synchronization in between movement and breath and the control over both. Throughout the practice, the practitioner is taught precise breathing techniques which are accompanied with each movement, be it staying in a particular position or asana or moving in or out of it. This harmony between breath and movement can only be achieved by concentrating on the balance in between both the elements.
Breath, Body and Mind are the three cornerstones of Prana Vashya Yoga. Vinay Kumar focuses on supporting students and practitioners of Yoga across all levels and helping the understand the importance of breathing. The practice aims to regulate the balance in between the mind and the body using the breath as its tool. With constant and relevant connection between the mind and the body an individual can develop a capacity to relax the mind through the mind’s Pranic power.
