Windfire Yoga Foundation Course

The Windfire Yoga Foundation Course provides training in: sensitisation of joints and muscles; awakening the seven primary bodyparts; integrating the ten primary joints; releasing the breath; establishing the dynamics of functional and structural integrity. This includes the direct and indirect application of the bandhas; clarification of ujjayi breathing; pranayama and meditation.

The three Foundation modules can not only be taken in any order but also any number of times: not only because each presentation is different in response to thse persent, but also because repetition is the essence of embodiment, and embodiment is the basis of yoga. The yoga classes in each module are suitable for any yoga student, even absolute beginners and teachers ready for a fresh approach.

THE METHOD MODULE uses simple movenemts and postures to calrify the basic elements of yoga practice: movement (vinyasa), stillness (asana), integration (bandha), breathing (pranayama), and awareness (drushti). You will learn the functional dynamics of integrity and breath body sytnchronisation. Its unifying perspective is as useful as a finishing point as it as as a starting point. By preceeding the other two modules it contextualises them. If done after it clarifies them.

THE DYNAMIC MODULE This module repeats the ground covered in the Method module in the first two sessions, and can therefore also be taken first. It focusses especially on the integrating impact of the spiral dynamic of structural integrity. The spiral dyanic is the mechanical basis of the bandhas in the whole body. This module provides an intuitive approach to alignment that greatly simplifies yoga posture practice.

THE INTEGRATION MODULE This module recapitulates the ground covered in the Dynamic and Method modules in the first two sessions, and can therefore also be used as an introduction. It focusses on the clarification of the bandhas in the whole body. This includes merubandha, hastabandha and padabandha as well as mulabandha, uddyanabandha and jalandharabandha.
