You mad- man!!!
Found yoga breathing, did you??

Yes, the stillness one can find within when effort and breath are in harmony is a wonderful thing.
I do yoga and feel it there.

But my first experience was.......swimming!
In competitive swimming, you must breathe in thru your mouth and out thru nostrils and mouth. The synchronization
between this and the stroke cycle is what helps determine an efficient, smooth stroke.

And so applicable to so many other activies. Though rarely do other sports focus on "the breath".

I really do think that yoga is a perfect "counter balanced" compliment to skiing. The focus on breath, balance and symmetry in the body,
make the two like....filet mignon and a souful cabernet, green eggs and ham, manchego and a full bodied rioja.....you get my drift!
