DAOYIN: Create Space, Restore Movement Explore how gentle stretching and careful movement can create space in your body. Daoyin is part of the Taoist tradition of yangsheng (養生), the cultivation of life. It brings together stretching, body alignment, and attention to movement as a practical way to care for the body. In this program, Prof. Dr. Dan Vercammen explains and demonstrates the principles behind the exercises. You will learn to pay attention to the position of your joints, bones, and spine, and to explore movement without unnecessary tension or force. Starting with the basic posture and Dantian, you work through the exercises step by step. The emphasis is on understanding how you move, rather than simply copying an outward shape. Take time to watch, practice, and return to the instructions as your understanding develops. Daoyin can be practiced on its own or as preparation for other Taoist training, including Taijiquan and the Walking Exercises of the Eight Immortals. A condensed practice sequence helps you bring the exercises into your daily routine. For whom is this program? For anyone interested in Taoist movement and the cultivation of life, including practitioners of qigong, Taijiquan, or meditation. Beginners and experienced practitioners are welcome. Careful attention to the instructions is essential. 🌀 3 months (90 days) of program access 🌀 Clear video explanations and demonstrations 🌀 Step-by-step exercises and a condensed practice sequence 🌀 English subtitles 🌀 Downloadable videos to keep for personal practice 🌀 Start whenever it suits you 🌀 Self-paced study without personal guidance 🌀 One-time payment of €75
