Staying fit after retirement

Ruth Hay, Burbank center, CA

I was looking for something to complement my walking routines after I retired, and I did not want to go to a gym. When I got the card about the Burbank Body & Brain Center, I decided to check it out. I am so glad I did! Fatima, the owner, is the most giving and caring person I've ever met. My goals were to lose some weight and touch my toes. I've lost 8 pounds and kept it off for 1 year. I can touch my toes now, and I'm no longer waking up so stiff. Using the wooden pillow has helped my neck, shoulders, lower back, and my feet. I've met many wonderful people who I feel are my support group. It is the best decision I've made for myself and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to improve their body, mind, and spirit.

Deep Practice and a Long Love

Ann Marie Lee, Wyckoff center, NJ

I fell in love with the Wyckoff Dahn Yoga Center the first time I walked through the door in May of 2005. I'm now in my mid-60s and through years of consistent practice at the center, I can manage my daily physical and emotional challenges well. And I am able to live my life with a very positive outlook. The practice of meridian stretching, joint opening, breathing and energy meditation allows me to deeply focus in the feeling of my body, so that I am able to feel which areas in my body need attention. Through the deep concentrated breathing practice, my body is strong and my mind is quite clear. The instructors are caring and compassionate and the members are always supportive of one another. There is a feeling of a strong and open community within the center. The class schedule has been just right for the varying demands of work and family. And the center offers many programs which can help you move forward on your road to wellness. I highly recommend the Wyckoff Center to anyone w

Life Particle Meditation Circle

Usha Mehra, Copperfield center, TX

The Life Particle Mediation Circle met on Wednesday, June 12, 2013 from 7:00pm-8:00pm in Sugarland, Texas. Led by myself, Usha Mehra, and by sharing myself and the wisdom gained during past 2+years in the Dahn Yoga practice and from life’s many other resources, I felt a sense of peace unknown to me thus far. A small group of 6 participants, my friends for years joined in a comfortable sense, and very warm home of Mangals. Blessed with the presence of Sandra, an instructor of the Copperfield Dahn Yoga, we provided a brief introduction to Dahn philosophy and the significance in synchronizing body and mind to experience the wealth of energy of the basic constitution of the universe in the form of “Life Particles”. In the background, played “vibration” the beats from the “Brain Wave Vibration” CD by Dahn Yoga founder, Ilchi Lee, a renowned brain education leader and New York Times top 10 bestselling author. As the beats fastened, the group progressed from light stretches to hard tapping

Insomina went Away

Iqbal Singh, Fremont center, CA

Before joining Dahn Yoga I was having problems sleeping for quite a few months due to a family tragedy. I was going to the gym and long runs to tire myself out. But nothing helped me. Even sleeping medicine was not effecting. Then surprisingly, within a month of joining Dahn Yoga in Fremont I was able to sleep like a baby. I felt much more relaxed and my focus improved. I started doing better in college. Now I am glad I became member. It's worth practicing this yoga.

No More Migraines

Maile Sanchez, Santa Clara center, CA

When I went to Dahn Yoga in Santa Clara for the first time, I didn't know what to expect. I really like this studio, it's in a great location and the staff is really helpful and wonderful. I suffer from head aches due to stress. And after two weeks of class I felt a big difference in my health. I was able to relax and get a lot of stress released. Now I no longer need to take migraine medicine, and my health condition has never been better. After one month I ended up enrolling in long term program. If you have a stressful job and need something to clear your mind this is a great Yoga to practice.

Grieving process and anger management

Lalia Gutierrez, West Park center, TX

For the past three years I felt as if I was carrying a sack of sand on my back due to the loss of my husband. I tried everything that was available to relieve the pain and absolutely nothing worked. In fact, the lack of success transformed me into a monster with my family. I was so miserable and irritable with my family and any body around me. About a month ago I found this incredible center and an amazing instructor, his name is Alex Lee. I've been doing precisely everything he suggests me to do, and in only one month my life has totally change. That load on my back has disappeared completely and I just feel peace in my heart. I was wasting my time looking outside when my true self is inside me.

Consistant good quality class

Joy Lee, Santa Clara center, CA

I come to the Santa Clara Dahn Yoga Center once in a while since it's close to my office. From my work it's easy to drive and it's on Stevens Creek, a main street! Whenever I come to this place I get the same great class as my main center in Fremont. I think this is one of the many attractions from my 6 years experience with Dahn Yoga. Wherever you go, different cities or different states you get the same good quality class! The class is so rewarding after a long hard working day.

I decided to start practicing Dahn Yoga in May of last year. I was always tired, suffered from migraines since age 12, very over weight (230lbs), stressed, irritable, could not breath very well I could not even tie my own shoes. Now I'm happier, my outlook in life is so different, I can say I'm a new person!! I Don't worry anymore about anything it all, so come, I understand my emotions very well and know how to handle them immediately so they don't affect me during my daily life with my family and at work. Physically lots more flexibility, my body getting stronger every day, I wake up every morning at 4:30am ready to star my day!! can you believe that?? before I had to drag my body out of bed at 10am. My kids tell me that I'm from another planet. Even my friends tell me I look younger. Spiritually, it's the best journey I'm having, always finding new things about me that I never knew. I feel so energetic and my mind is so clear. My experience during this past year has been amazing. By

Increased flexibility, more relaxation

Geeh, San Ramon center, CA

I was skeptical at first as yoga was not something I was very interested in. But at the time, I was going through lot of stress from work. I Saw a brochure for the center and decided (against my strong dislike for yoga) to try it. I had an intro session done and Yelena, the manager of the San Ramon Body and Brain Center was very polite and professional. With her guidance, I was able to feel how much stress I have put on my body. This yoga is really easy on my body. I feel more at ease about yoga now. I increased my flexibility and can now actually touch the floor without a lot of pain in my legs. There still pain but much less. I am now also able to relax more. Thank you
