Shaolin - Yijin Jing Full Sequence: The Muscle / Tendon Change Classic

Shaolin Yijin Jing - Shaolin Qigong
Full Sequence
The Yijin Jing (or Muscle / Tendon Change Classic) is an ancient manual containing instructions which explains how, through the use of exercise and breath, one can fundamentally change and improve the physical body. Unfortunately the actual manuscript has been lost to us and only fragments or commentary on certain passages remain. With that said there has been an ongoing debate about what this manuscript actually said and what its function was. Wether the Yijin Jing was a series of specific movements or more of a user’s manual describing certain principles that the practitioner needed to adopt and adhere to. Through the consistent use of these core principles the changes in the muscles and tendons would occur naturally and on their own accord. This is not the place for such a discussion but my opinion tends to learn toward the latter interpretation.
So why am I presenting Shaolin Yijin Jing in this video? This series of movements has been adopted and handed down through the Shaolin temple for centuries. They are an incredible set of exercises which, if used on a regular basis, can be extremely beneficial to one’s physical health, well being and spiritual practice. They are Taoist ‘Dao Yin’ in character (meaning ‘guiding and leading’) or commonly referred to as Taoist Yoga. They are definitely designed for intermediate and above level practitioners as they can prove to be quite strenuous.
Please join me as we explore these beautiful, ancient movements!

Thank you! The soundscape was created by an amazing composer named Leigh Spusta - He's a fellow hypnotherapist and works with certain brainwave frequencies in his music.
