Budokon
Budokon in Japanese translates to Bu(Warrior) Do (Way) Kon (Spirit). Budokon is an integral approach to the study of the universe and the human relationship within it through the practice of a six pillar system which includes hatha yoga, martial arts, nutrition, psychology, and environmental awareness. Budokon was created by Kancho Cameron Shayne in 2000 [1] [2] Budokon is an art form inspired by centuries-old training systems (yoga, karate, Taekwondo, Brazilian Ju-Jitsu,[3] and zen meditation) that offers an emotional, physical, and spiritual workout. [4] Yoga develops power through stillness and mindfulness, martial arts develops power through explosive movement and meditation develops power through concentration. [5]The art form has become popular as a fitness trend while still maintaining the integrity and genuine of yoga and martial arts. [6] In the Budokon Yoga Primary Series, classes begin with meditation, followed by yogic movements, then some floating and inverting (gymnastic-like movements), animal locomotion, and ends with meditation [7]
Motto
“The way we do anything, is the way we do everything” [8]
Philosophy
Similar to the 8 limbs of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga or Kung Fu, Budokon has itʼs own six pillar system which makes a body of science and philosophy used as a moral code to provide a practical means of realizing the highest ideals in daily living. Rather than separating different areas of human knowledge Budokon integrates them together. [9] Organizing the way a person moves helps the organize the way a person thinks and lives. [10]Budokon studies the tree of life as a whole rather than limiting itself to one branch. This tree is a great organization of diverse elements yoked together by the unifying natural law. Budokon seeks to understand this law and teach itʼs principles. The Aim of Budokon is to expand the awareness of individual consciousness and thereby expand the awareness of the collective consciousness. The Philosophy of Budokon is influenced by the Japanese Samurai culture and the ancient teachings of Confucius and Laozi. [11]
