Pranayama Foundataion Course with Philip Xerri
“Prana is the sum total of all energy in the Universe”
Swami Sivananda
A year long yoga course comprising 6 full days of yoga tuition, home study and practice and personal supervision. There will also be a residential weekend following on from the course.
This yoga course will be an in-depth training in Basic Breathing and Pranayama. It will also be a journey of self development that may profoundly affect your practise and your life on all levels - PHYSICAL, MENTAL, EMOTIONAL and SPIRITUAL.
Philip originally trained with Dr. Swami Gitananda in India in 1980. Since this time he has taught Yoga and Pranayama continuously at all levels. Philip is an inspiring mentor. His teaching is sensitive, pragmatic, empowering and grounded; always leading students onwards towards a more subtle appreciation of the process of yoga.
Briefly, the foundation course will offer:
- Fundamental techniques of Pranayama practice mainly following the system as taught by Dr. Swami Gitananda also incorporating my own experience and insight gained over 20 years study and practise.
- A thorough grounding in how to introduce basic breathing and maintain a developing Pranayama practise within the class situation.
- A structured personal development that will give you confidence and direction in expanding and deepening your own practice.
- A practical and knowledge based foundation that will help you guide yourself and students to their individual potential.
- A comprehensive manual covering the main aspects of the course.
- The course will include personal practice, assessment and some written work and study.
This course is open to qualified Yoga teachers and experienced students with at least five years continuous practise. It will be held in Marino Institute of Education, Griffith Avenue, Dublin 9 and is limited to twenty five participants. For further information, please drop us an email.
