The viny\u0101sa, the connecting movements between the postures, is composed of 3 fundamentals (Tristana)<\/strong> which are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The breathing (Ujj\u00e3yi Pr\u00e3n\u00e3y\u00e3ma \u2013 the victorious breath) <\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. The control of the pelvic floor and the abdominal ball (M\u016bla bandha), <\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. The focused gaze (drishti)<\/strong> in the postures (\u0101sana).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Each of these spaces (positioning -Bandha) is one of components of the breathing technique called \u00ab\u00a0ujj\u0101y\u012b\u00a0<\/em>pr\u0101\u0146\u0101m\u0101ya\u00a0<\/strong>\u00bb.<\/p>\n

    When the three components (Tristana) are in harmony, synchronised with the movement, the sequence of Yoga postures and its rhythm, the yogi has reached the tristana. Once the tristana is reached, the yogi (le s\u0101dhaka) enters into the seventh part of the A\u1e63\u1e6d\u0101\u1e45gayoga, the meditation (dhy\u0101na).<\/p>\n

    The ujj\u0101y\u012b<\/strong> breathing is the basis of the \u00ab\u00a0Vinyasa\u00a0\u00bb<\/strong>. The correct body positioning in the \u00e3sana(s), comes from the Bandha(s). Drishti completes this trinity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
