In Part 2, Anastasis Tzanis dives deeper into the nuances of breath in yoga, unpicking common myths and sharing evidence-based insights that will reshape how you guide your students.
From Ujjayi breathing to carbon-dioxide training, this episode challenges the “take a deep breath” cue and invites a more intelligent, individualised approach.
Anastasis discusses why breathwork must be treated as work ; consistent, measured, and practical; rather than a quick-fix relaxation tool. You’ll hear his thoughts on how modern yoga can reclaim the wisdom of pranayama through the lens of science, and how understanding breath chemistry can transform teaching and practice alike.
In this episode:
The truth about Ujjayi breath (and why quiet breathing is often more advanced)
How pranayama aligns with the principles of Buteyko and carbon-dioxide tolerance
Why breath should be used as a tool, not a rule
The story of a student who overcame a panic attack mid-flight using breathwork
How teachers can create more profound learning through experience, not theory
This episode will leave you re-thinking the cues you give, the way you breathe, and the science behind every inhale and exhale.
