In this webinar, Kenneth Setsuzan Kushner Roshi will discuss the importance of developing the hara (lower abdomen) in Zen, the martial arts, and the fine arts. He will also demonstrate a series of exercises that can be helpful in developing and deepening hara breathing. While the webinar will be geared primarily to beginning and intermediate students, advanced students may also find this review helpful. This is will be a highly experiential webinar, and participants will be asked to practice the exercises as they are introduced. So, dress accordingly and be prepared to breathe!

The webinar (7:30-8:45pm CST) will occur immediately after evening Daily Zazen (7-7:30 pm CST). After Daily Zazen, we will switch to a different Zoom link for the Webinar.
