Learn a healthy way to breathe with Shakuhachi Grand Master Riley Lee

Better breath awareness leads to better control over all aspects of your life.

Riley started teaching breathing workshops in the late 1980s after he developed a series of breathing exercises to promote health, vitality. and wellbeing. At the suggestion of his Shakuhachi students, he has since refined and expanded his repertoire of exercises, gleaned from a number of sources and from his long and focused relationship with shakuhachi. The exercises are designed to create an awareness of one’s breath while at the same time, improving the strength and control of the muscles used in breathing. His workshops are legendary, and single sessions have been attended by as many as two thousand people.

Assumptions underlying breathing exercises:

- There is a healthy (optimal) way to breathe

 - Most of us do not breathe optimally much of the time

- Simple breathing exercises can benefit almost everyone on both physical and metaphysical levels, by increasing our breath awareness 

- Tension hinders optimal breathing 

- Awareness encourages optimal breathing

- Better breath awareness leads to better control over all aspects of your life, including Taiko playing.

Instruments are not required for this workshop.
