Chinook Wusdhu
Chinook's unconventional approach to fitness embraces a simple motto - 'if something works, I incorporate it and if something doesn't work, I eliminate it'. A work-out pioneer, he was one of the first to fuse multiple training methods into a holistic system over time evolving into his Yogua Dao system of health and healing. Yogua Dao translates to 'the way of constant evolution'. Forever flowing and growing, through the practices and principles of global health and wellness methods - Yogua Dao is the way of the seed, root and fruit. This method purposely emphasizes and utilizes circles and spiraling energies and is primarily focused on transitions between the asanas as well as the asanas themselves. Tai Chi, Bua Gua, Qi Gong, Aikido, capoeira, vinyasa yoga and meditation are the foremost, dominant guiding principles and techniques. It is theorized that many diseases originate in the core area or lower chakras because of modern day, sedentary lifestyles. Prana and chi get stuck from a lack of natural movement. Yogua Dao targets these chakras in a way to properly work through both tamasic and rajasic energy-related blockages.
