 Paul is a senior teacher of Pranayama, Asana and the meditative art and science of Yoga. He has been a dedicated student for over a decade of both Sri O.P.Tiwari, one of the few remaining classical yogis and masters of Pranayama, and the late Sri K. Pattabhi Jois in ashtanga vinyasa. Both of these great teachers have personally certified Paul in these practices, a unique position as the only one to receive this double honor. Paul continues with Mantra practice from the yoga lineage and meditative approaches, influenced by the Thai Forest tradition. This combination of practice and study through dedication and devotion has helped him gain some understanding of practice and to apply this appropriately in Asana, Pranayama, Mantra recitation and Meditation for the different level of students he has the privilege to share the teaching with. He continues his studies in health, digestion, anatomy and physiology. One of his main gifts is to be able to relate the teachings in a very down-to-earth way for the modern seeker. He does not take life or yoga too seriously and as a result the discussions and philosophical sessions are lively and humorous, helping to explain the meaning behind the practices and philosophy.
Paul grew up in Dublin, Ireland and completed formal university studies at Trinity College. He lived in New York for seven years where his life in yoga practice and teaching began. From 2001 to 2007 he focused six months a year on advanced yoga studies in India and various pilgrimage spots in Tibet, Thailand and India. With his wife, Jutima, they opened Samahita Yoga Thailand and are both the happy parents of two lovely boys, Sean and Dylan. He knows firsthand about raising a family and keeping a sincere connection with practice and internal development. This practical experience and love of the subject matter he shares with joy, intelligence and humour.

Deepen your Yoga Practice
Pranayama is a fine science and a subtle art which requires time and a dedicated practice in order to be truly understood. This weekend is a great way to begin a pranayama practice or to learn and practice refining an ongoing practice.
For beginners: you will learn the basics and go home with a base practice.
More experienced: you will be given personal help for refining your practice.
All students will learn and practice the techniques of pranayama as well as the philosophy of pranayama as a path to meditation.
The correct method and practice of techniques such as uddiyana, agni sara and kapalabhati. A number of preparatory practices that address the level of tension built up in the abdomen and throat/jaw region plus some of the classical pranayama techniques.
The key principles of alignment, integrity and energy will be the focus of each vinyasa asana session. From alignment we get the correct grounding and extension while integrity identifies the correct muscular support. Awareness and proper breathing added to this structure affects the energy that vinyasa can further affect.
All this informs us what really are bandhas, drishtis, vinyasas and ujjayi breaths.
The principles of Asana are universal and just need to be internalized through understanding and practice. With integrity and effort possibilities open up for everyone.
We will also have discussion sessions with Paul on both the practices and philosophy. Any questions you have are welcome.
The sessions are open to all levels of students.
The workshops are appropriate for students at most levels of practice, from experienced beginner to advanced practitioner.
