Taoist Yoga is a system of invigorating exercises designed to develop strength, flexibility and balance, and to enhance the flow of energy in the body. The postures and exercises of modern Taoist Yoga are unique in that they often focus on opening the tendons which lie under the muscle near the bone. While tendons are difficult to open, they will lengthen when postures are sustained. Because of its asian medical influence true Tao yin classes also incorporate a blend of chi - gong and tai chi postures. The primary goals of Taoist Yoga are: to increase the “vital energy” moving into and circulating within our bodies; to become aware of the subtleties of our body, breath and mind and understand their relationship to one another; Postures focus on strengthening first the internal organs while loosening the spine, joints and tendons to improve circulation and promote well being from the inside out. Physical flexibility and strength is achieved by sustaining postures for longer periods; allowing the body to open into the posture like a flower opening into a bloom. Students experience improved range of motion, smoothness in movement, clarity of thought and an overall sense of peacefulness. It is appropriate for all levels. Most postures are done on the floor or seated. Adaptations can be made for special needs. Source: Deanna McLaughlin References: Master youngman Park of Korea and Mantak Chia
