I started YiShuiKong because:

I was introduced to it when I was living in Utah.

My passion for YiShuiKong

When I attended my first YiShuiKong lesson, I just knew that this was something I wanted to do. And at that moment, I wanted to share this with as many people as possible and do this together.

YiShuiKong is still new in Kansai area. I hope to spread it from an old capital Nara to Kansai area to throughout Japan, and to the whole world.

What changed after starting YiShuiKong?

My awareness of breath changed. I was taught to inhale first before YiShuiKong, making it difficult to deeply breathe. If you start with exhale, like we do in YiShuiKong, I get to breathe as much as my body needs.
When I am feeling down, nervous, want to cry, upset, or in a hurry, I make sure to do YiShuiKong breathing. That way, my body's tension melts away from the shoulders and I can relax. I also learned to slow down to deal with things in life.

What are the appeals of YiShuiKong?

  1. After YiShuiKong, I feel calm. (My mind feels lighter)
  2. I feel taller and it feels good.
  3. I feel a light sense of exhaustion and makes me want to spend a relaxed time afterwards.
