DahnMuDo School Sharing: Shouka Brings Her Body into Alignment

Eunyoung Cho from the DahnMuDo School staff sent me this sharing from a participant of the January 2008 term. You can see what the intense concentration on DahnMuDo that DahnMuDo School provided did for her body and her mind.

Seven years ago, I had a car accident, and last year I learned that my recent headaches are due to jaw and neck rotation after the accident. I went to chiropractor for more than 6 months, (and) it helped to reduce the pain, but did not completely eliminate it.

After three and a half months of practice at Dahn Yoga, my headaches are gone, and in DMD school, I felt that the physical practices improved my shoulder & neck posture. I can perform sword forms correctly which is an indication of my body balance. Also, I feel that my hip-rotation is getting much better and I can do kicks much easier.

I have also experienced great inner growth due to focusing on my energy center through all practices. I also have had lots of lung problems and my lungs are very weak, this is the first winter that I did not catch cold after 3 months of Dahn Yoga practice. During DMD, I had experienced very strong heart opening and also throat opening, which means my heart is more open and I can express my soul much better.

Love, Shouka Darvishi

Portland, Oregon
