yoga with jeff
Based in household yoga practices of more than 40 years, Jeff’s yoga work will include group sessions, and additional content not focused exclusively on posture. That additional content will include 9 Minutes or LESS, and will include THE PRANA PROJECT. Jeff will share therapeutic, maintenance, and training that alternate between the Playful (Lila) and the Heroic (Vira). Look for an occasional Book Review, Interview, Creative Adventure, or Personal Note in realms practical and imaginative.

A closing Vinyasa
The word Vinyasa is Sanskrit for “flow.” What is the flow? It is the unbroken attention with the unbroken breath. It is the “yoking” of breath and attention in the vesssel of the body. Vinyasa can mean specific, isolated attention and breath in movements of the toes or fingers or eyes or tongue, etc. The flow can apply to the whole body’s movement and integration in longer sequences such as a salute to the sun or warriors or one legged balance, etc. Find stability, alignments, balance, strength, attention, breath. BE still. Let your breath guide your movement with unbroken attention.

Morning practice, Wake Up With Yoga
I recorded this last night because I must be on the road during our usual time. Here we observe three planes of functional spinal movement with breath. I invite you to recall warm-ups of this past week and to practice from whatever you can recall. If you cannot recall, then reboot yr favorite livestream recording and use that.
This week marks the start of a new endeavor at the SAMURAI INTI Martial Arts Studio in Frisco. I’ll be teaching i a group class there at Sendai Sebastian Mejias ‘ dojo on Monday and Wednesday mornings.
