I was wondering, about the "standing postures" mentioned earlier -- would the breathing exercises demonstrated my Tamura Sensei at last years' Eastern Region 40th Anniversary Summer Camp qualify?

He usually started his sessions with a 1/2 hour of standing breathing exercises, in various postures.

My sensei usually has us start off with subset of these exercises, befoe we start warmups.

Would the traditional "rowing exercise" count, as well?
