Learn about Yoga Breathing

Learn About Yoga Breathing

Pranayama, or the limb of yoga that encompasses regulating our breath, is an invaluable tool to us. We can use specific helpful breathing exercises to support out bodies, minds and emotions. Learn how during this day.


Practice seated forward bending

Practice Seated Forward Bending

These more challenging seated forward bending positions can be practiced step by step. They help prepare us to sit comfortably cross legged or one of the other upright seated postures in yoga. There is a progression and you can work towards this gradually.


Be at ease in a seated yoga pose

Be at Ease in a Seated Yoga Pose

This step is an aim, to practice gradually. It doesn't have to be achieved straight away. Safe practice will be encouraged, to work towards this as a goal with achievable steps.


Join Liz from Into Yoga and Nature for a day of Vinyasa Krama Yoga at Wells Museum. This month we will be focusing on Pranayama (regulated breathing in the tradition of authentic yoga). Learn the how, why, what and when of this crucially important limb of yoga, and the huge benefits of this for balancing the mind.
Krama means 'step' and Pranayama is one element where taking things step by step is essential. Find out what step works for you right now.
Alongside this we're focusing this month on the 'seated posterior sequence' - seated forward bending, boat pose, bound pose, side plank, turtle and more. But these are not random poses; learn how they work together and eventually help us to sit comfortably to practise Pranayama, as well as meditate.
The sequence has numerous vinyasas (variations with fixed parameters) that help to prepare us for this. It also helps us to exhale deeply, the perfect approach to start extending or regulating breath effectively.

Your teacher

Into Yoga and Nature
Into Yoga and Nature

female Women-owned

Liz from Into Yoga and Nature has been teaching yoga since 2015, after starting her studies and practice 10 years prior to that. She was deeply inspired by some teachers who had the ability to teach yoga in a transformational way and went on to train in the same method, which is Vinyasa Krama. This term means variations with certain parameters taken step by step.
So the skill she now offers is matching many different possibilities in yoga to a group or person in front of her. This can include yoga therapy where needed, for example addressing back, joint, breathing issues among many others. It can also mean simply guiding you/your group in exactly what you need, helping you to emerge feeling energised, yet calm and clear.
Liz also offers Ayurvedic diet and lifestyle advice, offering consultations and talks on holistic health using this ancient health system from India.
And finally she also guides people in wild food forages and nature connection, both her deep passion and enjoyment.
