Dahn Yoga and O2 Yoga

[x-bluerose-x.livejournal.com]

I tried going back through the posts but couldn't see if Dahn Yoga was brought up before. I currently go to 02 Yoga and I was wondering if people have also tried the Dahn Yoga studio and what they thought of it. It's more expensive but they advertised having also having t'ai chi classes, and would be less expensive belonging to both a t'ai chi studio AND O2 at the same time.

Thanks!

Edit: wow, I had no idea Dahn Yoga wasn't just an innocent yoga studio...they're wicked creepy, definitely will avoid them. Thanks for the info!

They are kinda cultish.
I mean, super friendly and sincere...but creepy all the same. I went in with a gift certificate for a month, and only managed to go twice before getting a bit twitchy. What's cultish is the hard sell technique of encouraging you to get more involved by going to these expensive workshops they have...and getting your friends involved...

They are good with energy work, I'll give them that. But it wasn't really like yoga, and it wasn't really like martial arts, and it had little of either's benefits. I did feel good after each class, but it was soon countered by pressure to come back (even if it was so nice and sincere...eek).

I'd say...worth going to check out and get your own feel for the place, but be on guard that they may try to sell you more than you went in for.
