Thanks to Da Xuan's Jeremy Rocul for releasing this course on the fundamentals of the physical training method we use in our school.
This is a very detailed step by step course and we highly recommend it for complete beginners and advanced practitioners alike.
This benefits the core of the human qualities that can translate to any discipline one is involved with.

Got to teach a little workshop on standing practice during lunch time today!
In the Da Xuan tradition we start with the principle that a human being is between heaven (the divine, pure yang) and earth (the mundane, pure yin) – heaven on top , humans in the middle and earth below. We are able to exchange with both the mundane and divine but do not completely belong to either. On a personal level this concept appears as the three parts of the human being:
– The mental mind and spiritual elements (yang, function)
– The breath and emotional elements (exchange between yin and yang)
– The body and physical elements (yin, structure)
Despite the implications of the terms mundane and divine, we actually treat all three parts as being of equal importance. Practically speaking this means that our practice is divided evenly between the three, both on any given day and over longer periods.
The next most important principle is maintaining a daily practice. It is said that a pot of water will eventually boil on low heat, but if it is taken on and off the stove it may never get there. This means that we prefer to do 15 minutes of practice every day rather than 2 or 3 big one or two hour sessions every week with no other practice in between.
