Pamela Cardone
 

From her very first class in 1998 at a local Y in New York, Pamela fell in love with yoga. After several years of practicing yoga with her teacher Yogi Ren� David, she knew she had to share this wonderful gift with others. Under his guidance in 2004, she completed the 200-hour certification and is a registered yoga teacher with Yoga Alliance.

Pamela's teachings are based on traditional hatha yoga practices and she believes that yoga is for everybody and every body.  Having practiced personally at every size from 8 to 26, she knows how to modify poses for every body type. With classes ranging from gentle yoga to dynamic vinyasa flow, there is something for everyone. Using classic asanas, pranayama, and relaxation techniques to increase awareness of body, breath, and mind, students learn to embrace their true self and accept what their bodies & minds will allow. Pamela's teachings reflect her love of yoga and her joy in sharing it with others. She wishes to inspire her students mentally, physically, and emotionally through words, music, and making the most of each moment in life.

Ujjayi Breath
"Conqueror Breath"


(oo-jy [rhymes with "pie"]-ee)
ujjayi= to conquer, to be victorious

Ujjayi is especially known for the soft hissing sound the breather makes by directing her inhales and exhales over the back of her throat. To learn how, try this.

Inhale through your nose, then exhale slowly through a wide-open mouth. Direct the out-going breath slowly across the back of your throat with a drawn-out HA sound. Repeat several times, then close your mouth. Now, as you both inhale and exhale through your nose, direct the breath again slowly across the back of your throat. Ideally, this will create, and you should hear, a soft hissing sound.

This sound, called ajapa mantra (pronounced ah-JOP-ah mahn-trah, the "unspoken mantra"), serves three purposes: it helps to slow the breath down (which is exactly what we want for Ujjayi), to focus awareness on the breath and prevent your mind from "wandering," and to regulate, by continually monitoring and adjusting the evenness of the sound, the smooth flow of breath (another important element of Ujjayi).

Start with 5 to 8 minutes of practice, gradually increase your time to 10 to 15 minutes. When finished return to normal breathing for a minute or two, then lie down in Shavasana (Corpse Pose) for a few minutes.

Ujjayi is the foundation of many other techniques listed on this site; e.g., ratio breathing, svara yoga, digital pranayama, retention along with the two bandhas. Note that Ajapa Mantra isn't used when performing digital pranayama.

Conscious Movie Night 

Saturday, September 20th

7:30 - 9:30 PM
Davie

 

Let's come together for an evening of fun and elevation, uniting our hearts as One. Be prepared for pranayam, meditation ... and then we'll sit back, get comfy and watch: LIFE OF PI. At the end of the movie there will be a group discussion where we can share our thoughts and impressions. We will have movie snacks and Yogi Chai Tea. Donation: $5.

 

About the film: Ang Lee's "Life of Pi" is a miraculous achievement of storytelling and a landmark of visual mastery. Inspired by a worldwide best-seller that many readers assumed unfilmable, it is a triumph over its difficulties, a moving spiritual achievement whose title could have been shortened to "life." Middle-aged Pi Patel,  tells the tale of his earlier life to a wide-eyed Canadian novelist, about being the younger son of an Indian zoo owner who survives a terrible shipwreck during a storm in the Pacific Ocean and makes it through whatever ordeal we are about to witness.
