Dahn Yoga in Chicago schools!
Dahn Yoga and Brain Respiration have been taught to 1,100 elementary and middle school students and 200 teachers. In addition, 1,300 Human Technology books were donated to a school in Chicago.05/29/2006  Last year, Dahn Yoga and Brain Respiration were included in the curriculum of two elementary schools (Kennedy and Washington Elementary School) and one middle school (Lincoln Middle School) in Chicago. Students practiced Dahn Yoga and Brain Respiration once a week. As first, Dahn was taught in regular physical education classes to Lincoln Middle School students. The response was so positive, Dr. Roberta Taylor, the superintendent of Schiller Park District, requested other training programs at Kennedy and Washington Elementary School. In total, they have taught 1,300 students and teachers during one semester. The news about including Dahn Yoga and Brain Respiration into school curriculums was also in school newspapers. It said, “The students enjoyed their first experience with yoga and Brain Respiration and said that it helped them relax. They reported feeling their energy move through their bodies. There is more good news from Chicago. Dahn instructors in the Chicago area started a campaign for donating Human Technology books to the schools that had Dahn classes. More than 100 instructors, healers, and members from centers in the area participated in the donation and collected 1,300 books. These books were donated with a ceremony which teachers from three schools attended. We hope Dahn Yoga will be introduced to more schools soon. |
