Body Tapping
Body tapping is a traditional health practice in much of Asia. In Dahn Yoga body tapping is used as a warm-up exercise to release tension, stimulate circulation and unblock the body's "energy centers." |
Abdominal Press
Dahn Yoga warm up also features an exercise for strengthening and releasing tension in the lower abdomen. This exercise relaxes the diaphragm and improves general circulation. |
 Meridian Stretching
In Dahn Yoga the gentle stretching of muscles and joint rotations are designed to help ki (energy) flow more smoothly through the body's energy channels called "meridians." |
Deep Breathing Postures
Dahn Yoga include special postures to encourage deep abdominal breathing for greater relaxation and activation of the body's central energy center or "dahn jon." |
 Energy Meditation
As practitioners develop greater body awareness and ability to relax, their level of concentration deepens. Dahn Yoga Energy Meditation accelerates this process by shifting the focus away from busy thoughts to the physical sensations of the body. |
 Brain Wave Vibration
Brain Wave Vibration is a form of moving meditation which is easier to master than traditional sitting meditation. Simple rhythmic movement helps to develop concentration and relaxation. |
Cool-Down
After deep meditation, special Dahn Yoga stretching and sweeping exercises help to refresh and invigorate the body. |
Tai Chi
Tai Chi is an East Asian internal martial art which helps relieve the physical effects of stress on the body and mind. Learning to focus the mind solely on the movements of the form helps to bring about a state of mental calm and clarity. |
DahnMuDo
DahnMuDo is an internal martial art derived from Korean healing traditions. These exercises are designed to enhance personal strength and integrity and develop stamina. Unlike combative martial arts forms, these exercises are specifically designed to avoid injury. |
