How to Create & Develop Tanden in Bujutsu DVD by Shingo Fukai

Martial Arts Method for Developing an Unshakable Core (Hara)

Build a physical and mental core that cannot be achieved through conventional core training! When you truly cinch and decide from your Hara, you can demonstrate your inherent power.

This DVD features Shingo Fukai, a Tai Chi instructor, providing careful guidance on developing the dantian (lower energy center) - a crucial element in martial arts, Eastern medicine, and health practices. Through progressive exercises suitable for everyone, you'll gain a tangible understanding of the dantian (Hara: the physical and mental core) that is often described only metaphorically.
