Raymond completed Reusi Dat Ton (Thai Yoga) training in Thailand
Reusi Dat Ton (Ascetic Self Stretch/ Hermit Yoga) is an important part of the traditional Thai medicine and culture. The movements are based on the Reusi statues at the temple and their poems about their health benefits.
It usually starts with breathing exercises, self acupressure massage and then moves onto dynamic stretches and poses, which is very similar to how we would normally run our taichi and qigong classes at WELBY Holistic Healing.
Raymond was very lucky to train in a very small group with only three other people and found the intensive close supervision extremely beneficial (and grueling especially in 35 degrees heat and 90 – 100% humidity with no air conditioning!).
“It is almost the missing link between Yoga from India and Qigong from China, I think this is the perfect form of exercise for people who find Yoga a little bit too “static” and Qigong transition too “dynamic”. As soon as we started training you can straight away recognise the movements from both Yoga and Qigong and even Pilates. I have already started prescribing individual exercise from the Reusi Dat Ton series for physiotherapy patients with neck and upper back pain and have immediate success. I truly cannot wait to start sharing what I have learned soon! It has been an eye opening experience and a reminder that I should always keep an open mind when comes to learning things I am skeptical and not familiar with.” exclaimed Raymond.
