Yoga, Breath and Somatic Dialogue with Katrin Köhler

Intensive yoga weekends in the Habřiny rectory 2.-4.6. and 6.-8.10. 2023

These weekends are an opportunity to take a break from our usually very busy everyday lives and spend time just with ourselves. In the beautiful surroundings of the completely reconstructed rectory in Habřina we will practise intensive yoga. In this way we can experience yoga at a much deeper level than is possible in our weekly classes. We can also go for walks, swim, enjoy meals together, relax or just be. Our practice will include asanas, breathing exercises, pranayama, meditation and various topics from the yoga philosophy. With the support of these exercises we will explore how closely the body, breath, and mind are connected and influence each other. In this way, we gain experiences, which can support us also when we are back at home so that we do not get lost so easily in the turbulence of daily life, but can reconnect again with the inner source of our existence.

Intensive summer week on the concept of the „Vayus“ 2023

We all need energy in order to practise yoga, walk, talk or work. Also, all internal processes like digesting food, remembering, recognizing or feeling various emotions are only possible because there is energy available for it. In yoga, this energy is called „prana“ and it regulates all living processes, not just within ourselves, but also in the outside world. Without prana no life is possible. In the human body, prana is divided into the five inner vayus (energy flows). Each of them fullfills separate functions and works in a different area of the body.

In this intensive course, we will explore these five vayus with the help of asanas, breathing exercises and meditation. In this way, we can directly experience their influence on us. Each evening we will work with a different energy and observe how it affects our body, breathing and also our inner state. With the help of bandhas (closures) we can learn to stimulate or to calm and to direct the vayus.That will support us in finding more balance and harmony not just in our yoga practise on the mat, but also in our daily lives.

Yoga at the end of the year 2023 in Freiburg i. Br., Germany

In this course we will have the opportunity to use the days between Christmas and New Year’s Eve to practise yoga intensively and take a break from all day to day duties. We can close the old year and open up new possibilities for the future. Each morning will be dedicated to a different topic and aspect of yoga, including yoga philosophy. In this way, we can experience ourselves each day in different ways. The experiences we make with our body, breath and perception during the course may then enrich us later in our everyday lives as well.
