Rhythmic Breathing and Foot Placement

Listed by the publisher as “Lying on the feet turned in, while breathing rhythmically – kinesophics”

The lesson focuses on a specific four-part breathing rhythm involving equal phases of inhalation, holding, exhalation, and pausing. While maintaining this rhythm, students explore reaching for their ankles and eventually folding each foot underneath the pelvis while lying down. The practice emphasizes keeping the breath continuous and calm despite the unusual leg positions.
