Workshop: Pranayama (Yogic Breath) for Musicians

For ages 11 and up.
The power of our breath goes beyond simply keeping us alive - it can allow us to synchronize with the external world around us, and internally it can re-regulate our nervous systems before auditions/performances. It can also be used to regulate our temperature and to create different mental states such as excited or calm. If you are a singer or wind-player, you're already using your breath to fuel your instrument, and this workshop could help deepen your understanding of the mechanics of breathing as well as try some techniques that you might use in other areas of life.
Feel free to bring any mat/cushion to sit on or to use one of our chairs here. If you have a medical condition that may be impacted by breath retention, please consult your physician before registering.
