WARM UP
Before beginning principal yoga exercises, Dahn Yoga practitioners are encouraged to warm up the body, especially the core.

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.

PRINCIPAL EXERCISES
"Dahn" means "energy" and Dahn Yoga is based on the East Asian understanding of life energy. Dahn Yoga is designed to help the practitioner develop self-awareness and improve the circulation of energy in the body.

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."

MEDITATION & COOL DOWN
Traditionally, the discipline of yoga has been used to help people meditate. Dahn Yoga meditation helps the practitioner develop healthy balance of relaxation in body and mind.

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.

ENERGY MARTIAL ARTS
In addition to yoga and meditation Dahn Yoga may include energy martial arts as elements of a class or as special classes. These ancient practices help develop balance, awareness and improved health.

Ki Gong
Ki Gong involves meditative movement and breath awareness that help the practitioner accumulate "Ki" (energy) and develop insight. The simple exercises are suitable for people of all ages and ability levels.

body and brain center in babylon village

mariann, Babylon Village center, NY

body and brain center in babylon village Well....life is a journey, everyone has their own story to tell. My personal story with yoga was introduced to me by my daughter. She took classes in high school while she was studying dance. She said to me one day "mom you should try yoga it is so good for everyone". At the time I needed something for me. So I looked up the nearest center and took a couple of classes, I truly enjoyed it, but something was missing. I didnt know at the time what it was. I came along this pamphlet for the center here in Babylon Village with Jeanny. Well the moment I stepped into the place I knew I was home. It has added so much more for me than I would have never thought. I look forward to every saturday morning to come to the center and renew myself. I certainly want to add more days in the future, but for now I am just enjoying every minute I can spend with Jeanny at Body and Brain Center practicing Dahn Yoga. Thank you for letting me find you.

My Spiritual Journey

Kim, Babylon Village center, NY

My Spiritual Journey On Jan 7, 2012 I visited the Babylon Village Body n Brain Center. This is when I met the head instructor Jeanny. I have dabbled in Yoga at the gyms I belonged to but never felt a connection to it. I found it painful, frustrating and not fulfilling. Well, Jeanny has changed all of that for me. My journey is new, my pain is subsiding, I am getting stronger everyday, my mind is calm, I can focus, I am smiling again, singing in my car, I am finding me again. My life is changing.
