"Ujjayi"

 

Has anyone ever heard of this type of breathing.

 

In Okinawan-karate, it is called "ibuki" or "Sanchin-breathing".

This breathing-pattern forms the core of Sanchin-kata (the main

exercise of Okinawan GoJu-Ryu Karate or the "school of hard and

soft") ,and is coordinated with alternating patterns of muscle

tension and relaxation. Practicing this kata is said to help you

resolve the three conflicts of "mind, body, and spirit". The

word "Sanchin" actually means "three-conflicts".

 

My research in martial arts just keeps me coming back to India, time

after time.
