Masahiro Oki, Okido Yoga teacher, Martial Artist, combined with the study of Buddhism and Taoism, developed 29 Spinal Corrective exercises – a combination of movement and breath; each exercise relating to a vertebrae within the spine.
Okido Yoga’s philosophy is that ‘true knowledge comes from an awakening of deep personal inner wisdom and that this can only be gained through individual experience of the natural laws of ‘Change, Balance and Stability’.
Masahiro’s principles:
Positive mind
Gratitude
Hara (centre of energy/core/stability – solar plexus area)
Smile- laughter
Oneness
Mindfulness
Wholeheartedness
Love
Service
Ultimately achieving balance and harmony within the body.
The aim of the Corrective Spinal Exercises is:
• to increase circulation of energy, nerve synapses, blood and lymphatic circulation.
• stimulate the flow of Qi along meridian pathways
• calm and soothe the autonomic and parasympathetic nervous system
• improve muscle tone and health of the internal organs
Participants of our April 2016 workshops commented:
