Breathing during practice

It is important to know that body transformation in asana takes place faster due to rhythmic and deep breathing.

Chandrasana. The whole body should be stretched out in one plane. Pay special attention to your head, chest and buttocks: they should remain parallel to a straight line without going sideways and out of the overall posture.

Safeness in Yoga Wall practice

Savasana with neck unload. The purpose of this asana is to bring one’s attention to the whole of the body and relax tense zones. If this exercise is done after inverted asanas it will have additional therapeutic effect.

#YogaWall Dynamic exercises

Yoga Wall proved to be a very promising method of strengthening the ves-tibular system. Dynamic exercises on the ropes help one travel into a new per-ception of reality where arms and legs don’t contact the ground so that one gets a new type of the bodily spatial sensation, becomes conscious of its size, dimensions and proportions.

Dariia Antonenko, UFY instructor, on #yogawall

My first introduction to the idea of Yoga Wall practice dates back to 2013: they were launching a Yoga studio in Donetsk and I was helping Dmitry Danilov with ropes preparation.  There, on the floor of a spacious studio, we were measuring the ropes out, cutting them and edging. And arranging the received pieces in rows by their length, as if drying the noodles)). I used the very first ropes fixed on the wall to get on it. Tried to do a couple of asanas – this appeared to be very interesting and much fun. This practice gave me many new feelings. On the one hand this method may serve as a preparation for performance of more challenging asanas. As an experienced practitioner, I use Yoga Wall as an enhancer of many exercises. Besides, the practice of Yoga Wall is very exciting and gives many opportunities for experiments. This is an essential and very interesting somatic experience that every practitioner should get.
