meditation to help us keep our minds calm in between all our asanas.
Weeks Two and Three:
This week we'll be learning a bunch of standing poses to make us strong and healthy. We'll also talk about what are
called the yama and niyama — that's yoga -speak for how to be good to ourselves, and how to be good to others.
Weeks Four and Five:
Get ready for the balancing poses. These are really fun, but they require a lot of concentration, so bring your focused
minds! Then we're going to practice pranayama. This is controlled breathing and sometimes it sounds sort of like
Darth Vader.
Weeks Six and Seven:
Like going . upside down? Like headstands and handstands and stuff? Well those are called inversions in yoga, and
that's what we'll be doing this week. We'll also talk about how to stay focused and not get distracted by the world
around us.
Week Eight:
We'll sort of practice everything we learned, all put together. And talk about samadhi —our connection to the world
around us.
