I tried tai chi for the very first time and signed up for the consultation and introduction/trial class. First thing to know the parking is a garage behind the building and parking on the second floor then enter from the door, turn right and you will find the studio door. We arrived 10am for the 10:30-12 class and was very interesting! The instructor was great- super friendly and helpful. Before the class we signed a form, paid the fee $30 and then started with the introduction class then others joined who are regulars from the class. After the class we were offered tea and a consultation to speak about the memberships, thoughts of class, and feedback. It was a good one time try for the very first time however due to the high prices, I will probably not be back for another class. read more

My quest is over. For the last several years I have been burdened with a sense of emptiness, with a need to complete myself, with a tension inside me, 'am I stuck?' I have a busy and rewarding life (healthy kids, great job), but still the emptiness. In my quest over the years, I dabbled in multiple activities to fill the void - various exercise classes, unique hobbies and crafts, 'retail' therapy, vacations, happy hours, meditation classes and apps, Netflix on the sofa. All experiences that are distracting and fun, but briefly rewarding, if that, and expensive. Then I received a Body and Brain ad in the mail. I gave it a try. As a seasoned healthcare provider and athlete, I've come to appreciate alternative healing more and more, especially the connection between the mind and the body. Body and Brain program exercises both the brain and the body. Master Yana and Master Soa are powerful and loving guides. Also, try their workshops! I took a 2 day workshop, which felt to me equal to the power of 2 years of therapy! The loving teachers here helped me resolve the traumatic and disappointing relationships of my past and are teaching me the tools to live the second half of my life with strength, clarity, and energy. I highly recommend this addition to your life's journey. read more

I'm very happy my friend recommended me this place. Since the day I started, my health, energy level and happiness level are transformed. I felt connected with myself more and I could feel my energy flows more throughly. I love how the classes are structured. First we warm up, boost up energy, then practice flexibility, and finish with some self-love practices and meditation. After every class, i feel energized, calm, focus and connected. Highly recommend for everyone to give it a try and apply what you learn here into daily practice read more

I was pretty disappointed with this yoga class. I've been going to Jenny Yoga, and was curious about this Danh Yoga I've been hearing about. It just so happens that there was a Groupon for it. I bought 10 classes from groupon thinking it was a good decision, which I was wrong. I like coming early to class, but once I walked in I was already feeling weird. Gathered in a circle, they were chanting something while pounding our stomachs and telling our neighbors, "I love your kidneys." That was already weird, but in that hour of doing "yoga" I felt we were just doing normal stretching honestly. I looked up what Danh Yoga was, and saw a lot of articles on how it was like a cult lol... I went once, and will not return to use the rest of my 9 classes. read more

From the moment I walked in into the studio/temple, I felt the massive circuits of positive and healing energy that floats around the space and its masters. Definitely it has been a life changing experience and practice for me, my friends and family, I strongly recomned anybody looking to enhance their energy capabilties or to add on to their healing power tools! read more

This is the best mind-body system that I have encountered. It delivers fanastic (and scientifically proven) results. In fact, a very recent peer reviewed academic article points to its effectiveness, especially in terms of lowering depression and enhancing one's mood and sense of wellbeing. I joined 7 months ago and am unrecognizable in terms of my overall perspective on life, calmness, and happiness (my mother-in-law is convinced I look a decade younger and has started brain wave vibration herself). I have been able to make changes in my life that I would have thought impossible just a short while ago. I look forward to every day with a sense of excitement and wellbeing. JUST BRILLIANT! read more

Visited this location as part of my MetaBody Fitness package. I wanted to take a yoga class, but the only classes that were offered as part of my package was intestine exercise, meridians, or dahn mudo classes. Out of the three, I decided to visit on a day that offered dahn mudo. The location is relatively convenient, and the instructions on how to find the studio in the plaza were very clear on their website (it is located in the same plaza as the Kroger on Buffalo Speedway and Westpark and is found next to the Sprint store facing Westpark). The atmosphere is extremely calm and relaxing, and the owner was very welcoming. He patiently taught us what to do when we first walked in, such as which warmups to start with and where to put our things. The instructor for the course was very friendly as well and happily helped us newcomers through the poses. The course wasn't as physically challenging as I would have liked, and dahn mudo is more tai chi than yoga, so I was disappointed in that aspect. However, the stretches were very relaxing and helped loosen up my sore muscles from workouts I had done earlier that week. There were ten people in the class, most of whom were elderly, who seemed to be regulars and who seemed to enjoy and benefit more from the class. After the class, there was hot tea available while we mingled among the other customers and talked to the instructor. I do not recommend this location if you are looking for the traditional yoga or hatha yoga class. But if you do not come with this expectation, the experience could be rewarding if you need something to help you relax or escape from stress or if you just want to try something new. read more

Hope karma has their address... They are more concerned about upselling and charging you fees than anything else. I went once and it cost me two months fees and some unnecessary books and DVDs. Thank you, very mindful of you :/ read more

I bought a Groupon to Dahn Yoga for 10 classes. While I am not a Yogi.... I've certainly taken my fair share of Yoga classes. This was the biggest joke ever! This is not what I consider to be yoga. They had some 'digestive' class where we literally pounded on our stomachs for 15 minutes??? Weird and not what I was looking for out of a yoga class. The teacher was very difficult to understand and follow. I haven't gone back and actually contacted Groupon to get a refund. Do not waste your time or money... this is NOT a YOGA studio. read more

The instructors are wonderful. They have a very welcoming atmosphere. I love the classes they have been super beneficial in my daily life. I would recommend anybody to come check it out! read more

For people that are looking for "exercise" type of yoga. This might not be you place. If you are looking for a transformation of your health this is the place. I had a frozen shoulder, injections and after 2 months a recommendation to operate. By coincidence ended up checking out Dahn Yoga and without the surgery had no more problems with my shoulder after less than two weeks. Oh btw also lost about 15 lbs in those 2 weeks. read more

Are you feeling stressed? Check out Body and Brain Yoga/West Park. It's a clean, warm and welcoming place. Yana and all the other instructors are very loving and knowledgeable. Though their guided Instructions for breathing, stretching and meditation/relaxation you will feel a great difference from your very first class. The classes are very easy to follow and I have worked them in a daily routine at home. My flexibility have improved, I sleep better, lost weight and kept it off over the last 18 months. About a week ago I experienced a reoccurring neck pain. Before I started at Body & Brain my first reaction would of been to reach for some ibuprofen, instead because of what I've learned at Body & Brain I focused on the neck pain and with stretching, relaxing and meditation by the next the I had no pain and that was without taking any ibuprofen. I encourage any and everyone who is seeking to improve their health to try Body & Brain Yoga. You will be amazed and be happy with the change you will experience in your mind, body and soul. read more

I love Dahn Yoga! The environment is calming and tranquil. Brian, the head instructor is very attuned to the people who walk through the door--students or other wise. That, you do not see everyday. While I was in the throes of putting on my 'bright and shiny happy face"--you know the one we put on so the world will think we're okay, and that we sometimes use to convince ourselves of the same--he noticed the fact that I was under a tremendous amount of stress.. He saw it not only in my face, but in my body. Things I wasn't even aware of. I honestly found that very freeing. My first class--via Groupon-- was the Dahn Mu Do (very similar to Tai Chi as one reviewer pointed out). I was amazed at how effective it is in terms of strength building, (done properly), and I joined the same day before even using the remainder of my 10 sessions. I knew I had found the place I needed to plant some roots for awhile. I too, have a lot of experience with what we've come to think of as more traditional forms of yoga--hatha (especially like it hot), vinyasa (which I love, love,love), ashtangs, forest--and if that is what you expect to practice when you visit Dahn Yoga, you will not like this place. I repeat, you will not like this place. Just a little FYI, you probably wouldn't like Kundalini either. Personally, I find that Dahn Yoga really complements my more traditional yoga practice. However, if you are into, (or even curious about) things like, meridian clearing (a major objective of accupuncture), chakra healing, energetic vibration, CAM (complementary alternative medicine), the mind/body connection, and the like--in other words, if you have a desire to learn how to heal your body from the inside out--not only physically but emotionally and energetically as well--this is the place to be. And as you attend each class, you will discover that everything we do has a purpose, and the instructors explain exactly what that purpose is in detail. The warm up makes sense after you have attended the intestinal exercise and meridian classes. So if you haven't attended either of those, then you just have to step out on faith during the warm up until you do. Since attending Dahn Yoga, I have experienced bodily sensations that I have never felt before. I feel more connected with my body. I sleep better, I'm less stressed, and I feel lighter and more joyful. And yes, while I personally, am a good ways away from qualifying for any senior citizen discounts, there are a lot of older people in the classes, which I personally love, because finally there is a form of mind/body renewal that they can experience, enjoy and reap the benefits from. I would never invite my mom to a traditional yoga class--she would be too intimidated--but I can't wait to bring her here. Oh, and by the way, they have several locations around the country, so if you're travelling and are a member, you can practice at any studio as part of your membership. Also, in case you're curious and want to check it out, risk free, community yoga is offered on Saturday mornings--free of charge. Dahn Yoga is definitely not for everybody, but I can't say enough good things about it. read more
