Dahn Yoga

The traditional name for Dahn Yoga is "Dahn Hak," which literally means the study of energy. In Korean, Dahn refers to the primal, vital energy which is essential to all life forms, and Hak refers to the study of a particular theory or philosophy. Thus, a Dahn Hak practitioner is one who studies the system of energy for the purpose of personal self-development.
During Dahn Yoga training, practitioners learn to communicate with their bodies through energy. As the body's energy circulation is stimulated, its innate natural healing power is activated. Through consistent practice, practitioners can lead themselves back to optimum health. Essentially, they regain true mastership over their bodies through the medium of energy (Ki).
The benefits of Dahn Yoga, however, extend well beyond physical health. For one thing, the concept of health is all encompassing in Dahn Yoga. A truly healthy person not only has a fit and functioning body, but also seeks balance and harmony in all areas of life. Practitioners of Dahn Yoga often report that through their practice, their family Life improves, they gain confidence in their career, and many old and burdensome emotions are finally released.
When practitioners arrive at their goal of a healthy life, they often extend their intentions by creating harmonious relationships with their family, friends, communities, and nature. This helps them to become better human beings and creates a healthier, happier, and more peaceful world.
