THE ART OF MOVEMENT MEDITATION

If you are new to JIAIDO, this weekend workshop is the perfect introduction. Held at JIAIDO Academy, the school of the International JIAIDO Association located in Budapest’s 13th district, the weekend is designed to immerse you in the practice and philosophy of the practice.

This holistic method, based on movement and meditation, works simultaneously with all levels of human existence. It guides the body and mind into a quiet, meditative yet alert and aware state through a combination of movement, focus, breathing and rhythm.

The workshop is led by Ajiit, founder of JIAIDO, and experienced JIAIDO guides. During the weekend, you can experience the power and effect of being present, discover hidden abilities within yourself, and embrace the spirit of community. This time allows you to focus on yourself, gain self-awareness, and do all this in a creative and playful way, Here and Now, in the beauty and joy of the moment.

“The workshop was very useful, followable and practical. It gave me tools that I will be able to make good use of for individual practice. I got a perspective that beyond relaxing the body and observing bodily sensations, there is still room for development. It made me curious where regular meditation could lead.”
