FAQs

Do I need prior knowledge or experience of pranayama or other breathing/breathwork practices to start?
No. The breathing practices we use are simple to understand and to easy learn.

Do I need any special equipment?
No. No special equipment is needed.

Do I need to wear special clothing?
No, but loose clothing is good. Your stomach, chest, and neck area should not be restricted.

Do I need to be physically fit?
No. But you you will need to tell me if you have had or have any significant health issues such as heart problems, high or low blood pressure, stomach ulcers, or any recent abdominal surgery etc.

Leave a 2-hour gap between eating and class, and a 30 minute gap between drinking and the start of class. A small cup of warm water with lemon 45 minutes or so before class starts is good.

My Pranayama Practice

My pranayama practice forms part of my daily routine. Most days I get up at 4.30am, do 1hr physical yoga then 20-30 minutes pranayama. I’ll do another short pranayama session before lunch and then a gentle session in the evening before bed.
