Dahn Yoga exercises can be a great way to enjoy Spring. This weekend Dahn Yoga in Pasadena is hosting a healthy and fun event for the whole family featuring Dahn Yoga exercises and live Jazz performed by the Jacques Lesure Trio.
Yoga and Jazz are very compatible. Both can be dynamic, improvisational and relaxing. One more thing they have in common is that they are both more enjoyable with the people you love. In fact, studies have shown that people can influence each other’s health and lifestyle choices. Dahn Yoga hopes this event will create an opportunity for family and friends to help each other make healthy choices.
For fourteen years Dahn Yoga has been a California choice for health and wellness. Dahn Yoga’s Pasadena center wants to let the local community know what it has to offer, but also wants to let the community know it cares. Manager, Su Kyung Park, has been teaching Dahn Yoga for six years. She relishes this opportunity to reach out to her neighbors and celebrate her love of music. She hopes that others will learn about Jazz and this unique style of yoga.
Dahn Yoga classes feature Korean style stretching, flowing movement, deep breathing exercises and meditation in a simple and easy to learn format. Dahn Yoga recognizes the healing power of music; how it helps people concentrate and relax. Since every aspect of Dahn Yoga classes includes music, live jazz is a perfect fit.
The principal musician for the special event will be Jacques Lesure, a Jazz guitarist who has played with many of Jazz’s greatest artists. A Los Angeles resident, Mr. Lesure has contributed to theatrical productions, film scores and television projects. He is eager to give back to the community and expose youth and adults alike to the rich history of Jazz.
The special Yoga and Jazz event will take place Sunday, March 26 at 2PM at the Paseo Colorado, 280 East Colorado Boulevard, Pasadena, CA 91101. The event is free and open to the public. Dahn Yoga will accept donations to be directed toward the Red Cross Japan Relief Fund. For more information, please call Dahn Yoga Pasadena at 626-844-0433.
I often stroll through this street in the evening when they have farmer’s market open. It was nice to hear music and exercise going on, but too chilly to participate. I hope it comes back in summer when the weather is nicer! It looked very fun and interesting.
