Ki, also commonly spelled Chi or Qi, is a fundamental concept embraced by Asian philosophy, arts, medicine, and mind-body traditions. Ki is the word for the vital energy that is the true essence of every creation in the cosmos. Most people begin their understanding of Ki by experiencing it as bio-energy, or the basic life force in the body.

Ki is the bridge linking the body and mind; it is the essence of life, moving and flowing freely. The continuous joining together and drifting apart of Ki comprises the rhythm of the phenomenon of life. Everything in existence undergoes constant change. Everything around us, as well as our very lives, are temporary manifestations of Ki.

Ilchi Lee tells that although immersed in this grand flow of energy every moment of our lives, we are unable to sense its currents without properly attuned senses. Our over dependence on rational thought and language has obscured our natural ability to sense the flow of energy. However, we can regain our innate ability to feel the slight but pervasive vibrations that define our existence. It is up to us to reawaken this “sixth sense,” By opening blockages in the energy pathways and reawakening our innate ability to sense energy flow, we can recover our health and natural balance. When we develop sensitivity to Ki, we will be able to utilize our bodies’ potential more fully.

Though it was founded in the 1980s, Dahn Yoga's basic precepts and techniques are directly descended from methods practiced five millennia ago in East Asia. These precepts include the importance of the mind's partnership with the body, as well as the need for a balanced bond between the two.

Today, thousands of Americans practice Dahn Yoga everyday, many of whom are delightedly trying it for the first time. Taking a little time out of one's day to stretch, breathe, pose and meditate with a gentle smile on one's face can radically change one's mood and outlook.
