Building Prana with Hatha Yoga: Workshop 2

Mark Horner – 98 minutes

Pranamaya’s Building Prana with Hatha Yoga: Level 1 video introduces practitioners to some of the basic concepts of Hatha Yoga and building Prana. This second Hatha Yoga training video deepens the practice and helps students build deeper Prana.

Integrate Form and Mind

Of course, Prana refers to the life force and energy that is cultivated during Hatha and other yoga practices. Master teacher Mark Horner guides students to work on the “inner alchemy” of their practice. Inner alchemy refers to the synergy of form, energy, and mind that occurs when the body, breath, and attention become unified.

This video, available for immediate access, includes a 25-minute lecture on theory and a 75-minute guided practice geared towards students with a grounding in the basics of Prana and Hatha yoga. Newer students should begin with the Level 1 video before moving on to this one.

Build Energetic Prana

This Hatha Yoga training video focuses on the use of bandha. Bandha refers to a contraction or body lock that draws energy inward. This very efficient form of practice allows students to build Prana while expending less physical movement.

Hatha Yoga is a highly focused form of practice with many benefits. Mark Horner expertly guides viewers through the intricacies of Hatha poses to help build vital Prana.
