Great Falls Studio In this series of experiential workshops, we will explore the five prana vayus through lecture and practice. Emphasis will be on the vayus most beneficial in today's world: samana (balancing), apana (grounding) and the intelligent cultivation of pran (energizing). Prana, often defined as 'life force', is the vital energy that operates within your body to maintain life. When you practice yoga, you are moving and affecting energy. The Prana Vayus are the vehicle for energy moving in the body. Each vayu has a specific energetic effect. Knowing which vayus are affected by a pose allows you to create practices to meet your energetic needs and those of your students. Prana is the emphasis in Tantic philosophy. Tantrics believe that your experience of life is a precise reflection of your energy. If you change how prana flows, you change how you feel. Thus the way prana flows dictates your experience of life.
