9-Day Online Foundation Breathwork And Pranayama Course

Pre-pranayama is a preparatory practice that builds the physical and neurological foundation your body needs before attempting advanced breathing techniques. Most beginners have unknowingly conditioned themselves into shallow chest breathing due to chronic stress and desk-based lifestyles. Jumping straight into pranayama without this foundation can trigger dizziness or anxiety. Our 9-day online breathwork course for beginners gently awakens the diaphragm, releases tight intercostal muscles, and deactivates the fight-or-flight response so your nervous system is truly ready.

Absolutely. This program is specifically designed as online breathwork classes for beginners. No prior yoga, meditation, or breathwork experience is required. Our teacher Kalpendra Ji uses a patient, step-by-step approach that breaks down the physiology of breathing into simple, everyday habits. Whether you are completely new to breathwork or have tried and felt overwhelmed before, this course provides a safe, slow-paced entry point.

Chronic anxiety is deeply linked to habitual shallow chest breathing, which keeps the nervous system locked in a low-grade fight-or-flight state. Our online pranayama classes for anxiety work by activating the parasympathetic nervous system — your body's natural relaxation response — through diaphragmatic breathing exercises. Over 9 days, you will learn to identify your personal stress-breathing patterns and replace them with techniques that measurably calm the mind and reduce cortisol levels.

The program runs from the 1st to the 9th of every month with one live 45-minute session each day at 5:30 AM in your chosen time zone (IST, CET, EST, or PST). Sessions are held via Google Meet — no software to download. The all-inclusive $99 USD fee covers the full 9-day live curriculum, daily guides, and personalised feedback from your Rishikesh pranayama instructor. Group sizes are strictly limited to keep sessions intimate and interactive.

Your teacher is Kalpendra Ji, a pranayama master raised in a traditional spiritual family in Rishikesh, India — the world capital of yoga. He holds a Master's Degree in Yoga Science and brings over 25 years of teaching experience, including more than a decade of specialised therapeutic pranayama practice. His gentle, patient teaching style is especially well suited to beginners and those dealing with stress, trauma, or nervous system dysregulation.

Unlike generic pranayama workshops, our approach follows three stages: Observe, Understand, and Resolve. We begin by analysing your unique breathing habits through questionnaires and live observation during class. Your instructor then assesses your overall wellness — including stress levels, posture, and energetic blocks — before introducing specific corrective breathing exercises tailored to your patterns. You leave with a personalised toolkit of techniques you can practise independently every day.

Yes — this course is specifically recommended for people who feel panicked, short of breath, or claustrophobic during standard meditation or breathing classes. The pre-pranayama approach is deliberately gentle and slow. Rather than forcing your body into unfamiliar breath patterns, we first identify why you feel restricted and address the root physical tension. Trauma-informed seekers and those with anxiety disorders often find this the most accessible and effective introduction to breathwork available online.

Enrollment is simple. Choose your preferred time zone slot (IST, CET, EST, or PST), complete your secure registration for $99 USD, and you will receive a Google Meet calendar invite with your live access link. The course begins on the 1st of every month. Because group sizes are strictly limited to maintain an interactive learning environment, we recommend reserving your spot early to avoid missing the next intake.
