Dancing Dragon Taiji-Chikung system.

Dancing Dragon Taiji-Chikung system was formed by Taras Merkotan during his hermit years 2012-2024.
It is a result of merging of ample legacy of Taoist practices, received by Taras from several sources in Taoist tradition with deep theoretical understanding of principles of human being's energy system, obtained from his access to the root texts of Bon tradition.
It is simple, easy to learn yet very effective and gives quick and powerful results.

The system has three levels, taught in separate courses.

 
Dancing Dragon Taiji-Chikung Level 1.

This level is an entrance into the system. Its concentrates mainly on developing energy sensitivity and gaining the skills to accumulate vital force.
Practices of this level will be beneficial for those, who want to introduce a major change to their life, but don't have enough energy for that.
If you have a day job and want to start following your own dream, or if you are a business owner, who can not pass through an income ceiling - practices of this level will be beneficial for you.

Main meditational practices of Level 1 are
practice of contemplation on Tantien (main energy center of the body),
practice of full, five-level breathing and
practice of deep, whole body relaxation.

Main movement form of Level 1 is Five Elements Accumulation Taichi form.


Dancing Dragon Taiji-Chikung Level 2.

Practices of these level are concentrating on purifying previously accumulated energy by circulating it through the channels.
Purifying energy channels leads to optimization of biological system and significantly improves interaction between brain and limbs of the body.
Level 2 will be beneficial for people of arts, primarily musicians and dancers, who use motor skills as a part of their performance. If having engaged in these practices, musicians will need much less repetitions of a musical peace to master it perfectly and dancers will gain grace and mastery of dance movements unobtainable in any other way.
On the top of energy practices of Level 2 is a sexual practice of orgasm control and prolongation (performed in solo). This practice can significantly improve one's sexual life. If mastered and combined with certain knowledge about monthly time cycle (which will be passed to the disciples during the course) this technique permits to controllably ignite such an elusive thing as inspiration without using alcohol or any other psychedelic substances.

Main meditational practices of Level 2 are 
practice of small energy circulation,
practice of chi belt(s) and
practice of orgasm control and prolongation.

Main movement form of Level 2 is condensed Reeling Silk chikung form.


Dancing Dragon Taiji-Chikung Level 3.

Practices of these level are concentrating on elevating previously purified energy by packing it into inner organs. Inner organs are doorways between physical and mental energy systems, so Level 3 will be beneficial for those who are actively engaging into any kind of meditational practices, regardless of tradition they follow. Advanced meditative states require a lot of life force, and without proper support from the side of body and its energies it is totally possible to deplete one's vital force and destroy physical health by active meditation practice. On the contrary, mastering the practices of Dancing Dragon Taiji-Chikung Level 3 will boost and support any kind of meditational activity.

Main meditational practice here is meditation on emptiness.
Main movement form of Level 3 is upgraded Five Elements Wutang chikung form.


Dancing Dragon Taiji-Chikung was created to be a Swiss Army knife of physical body energies maintenance. It is modular, flexible, and follows functional approach (selecting the most effective tools for one's individual goal instead of following a preset, fixed tradition). This is a mathematics-like knowledge as is, free from any cultural or religious connotations. The practices are taught together with detailed understanding of theoretical principles, lying in their foundation. Such an approach makes you free from need of building subordinate "guru-disciple" relations, which are required if learning in any traditional school. As soon as you take the knowledge - it is yours till the end of your life.

For its followers this system can be a door into three advanced traditional practice systems: Taoist internal alchemy, traditional shamanism and Tantric path in Tibetan Yundrung Bon system.

For now Dancing Dragon Taiji-Chikung system is taught in the form of one-to-one online coaching in the rhythm of one lesson per week. If you would like to apply for the course, you can book a free consultation with the system founder by writing an e-mail to yundrung@protonmail.com. Consultation is needed to see do you qualify for the course, will it be comfortable for you to have Taras as your instructor and will it be comfortable for Taras to have you as a disciple.
