Tsa Lung
The five Tsa Lung exercises clear the major energy centers, or chakras, of the body, balance with winds, and bring the elements into harmony. These five exercises are more gentle than Trul Khor, but equally capable of clearing negativities and restoring balance and harmony in body, breath and mind. With each movement we gently hold our breath and focus our attention, to bring all the positive qualities to light.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Tsa Lung Trul Khor, or Tibetan Yoga
Who are these practices for?
The Nine Breaths of Purification and the Tsa Lung movements can be done by anyone, and we mean everyone! The A-Tri Trul Khor as taught here is also good for all levels of experience and ability. Rob has taught to people using wheel chairs, canes, with arms in casts and more. Some of the practices in their fullest expression are demanding, but all of them can be modified to suit your specific situation.
The Zhang Zhung cycle of Trul Khor takes a good bit of flexibility and breath retention and are best for more experienced students with full mobility.

How long does it take to see benefits?
It can vary from person to person, but the Nine Breaths can have an immediate impact on our emotional and physical state of being. The same is true for the Tsa Lung and the Trul Khor. But because they take time to learn and grow familiar, with it may take a few weeks of regular practice before the benefits can be felt.
How is Trul Khor different than other kinds of Yoga?
Trul Khor really works by a different mechanism than the kinds of yoga best known in the west. In yoga, we usually hold static poses for several breaths, or we move the breath with the body, flowing. In Trul Khor we hold the breath and the attention in specific places in the body while dynamically moving the body. Each exercise concludes with a forceful exhalation and clearing movement. The power of the breath and the focus of attention as we move generates heat, or subtle warmth. This starts to clear the energy body. Ultimately, yoga and trul khor have the same goals, but they approach them with different methods.
“The magical movements of Trul Khor are more than yoga—they are a blend of body, breath and our inner subtle energy and mind. Rob is an encouraging teacher who has studied these deep subtle practices from the ancient Bon system.”

“The practice itself is invigorating and balancing, and the effect is profound- like being smoothed out energetically with a brush or a comb from the inside out. Rob’s instructions are clear and straightforward, and his knowledge is advanced. It’s a rare and precious opportunity to be able to learn these “magical” movements - especially here and now - from someone who delivers the system in a way that is almost entirely experiential and immediately impactful.”
Suha Mughrabi
Practitioner
“I have practiced yoga for around 37 years. No practice has affected me more deeply as Tsa Lung Trul Khor. I experience a spontaneous uprising of gentle joy, and clarity. Rob brings his sincerity, devotion, and his own personal practice when he teaches. This helps deepen my own practice. ”
Angie Edge
Practitioner
“My participation for over a year in Rob's Sunday morning Zoom A-tri Trul Khor sessions added sublime depth of experience and insight into the nature of this practice. As the name implies, these movements are indeed " MAGICAL" and lead to a deeper perception of NAKED AWAKENED AWARENESS. Rob is an adept NAGPA. I can not recommend his program strongly enough. ”
