The Basics of Dahn Yoga
By mark in Health | 0 comments
Founded by South Korean educator, Ilchi Lee, Dahn yoga places equal emphasis on physical, emotional and spiritual well being. This style of yoga combines breathing, stretching and meditation with the goal of improving one’s health, happiness and inner peace.
Breakdown of a Class
The purpose of Dahn yoga is to improve your overall health through the development of your energy system and enhancement of the mind-body relationship.
1). Most classes start with what is known as “Meridian Stretching.” This exercise is intended to stimulate the body’s energy.
2). After stretching, a class will typically follow a sequence of body postures. These specific postures are meant to circulate the body’s energy.
3). Then, meditation is used to calm the body and positively reflect.
4). The class is concluded and usually followed by hot tea with the instructor and fellow classmates.
