Oki-do is a unique union of Indian Yoga, Chinese Taoism, Oriental Medicine and Japanese Zen.

Practices include purification, strengthening, asana, meditation, chanting and healing. Classes are open to all levels of experience and flexibility with the focus on being mindful and wholehearted. The community of teachers at Zen Central are all involved in ongoing study and training and look forward to meeting you! Oki-do is inspired by the life and teachings of Dr Masahiro Oki who devoted his life to others through his work as a teacher, healer and author.

Zen Central is can be found in the heart of cosmopolitan West End. Buses, trains, ferries, the Brisbane River, Southbank and the CBD are all nearby.....there's good on street parking too.

 

'Yoga is a practice that vitalises the Buddha nature. It improves the natural ability to strengthen and improve the body and mind, and to reinforce the Tanden. It's a philosophy and hands-on training on how to live with yourself and the rest in harmony (co-existence and co-prosperity)'
Dr Masahiro Oki
