Aaron Hoopes combines the different philosophies of various Eastern health and fitness traditions, creating this form of yoga to increase accessibility to people who are less athletic.[1] The philosophies of shanti yoga, qigong, and tai-chi are combined to help increase flexibility, improve the flow of breathing, and open joints. The philosophy of Zen is incorporated through being mindfully aware of the present moment.[1] The basic principle of Zen Yoga is that simple breathing, movement and stretching exercises are available to anyone regardless of age, fitness, or health.[1]

Oki-do yoga, which was developed by Japanese master Oki Masahiro (1921–1985) based on 'Indian Yoga, the Chinese Yin-Yang principles and the Japanese Zen tradition,' is also referred to as Zen Yoga.[2]

The Zenway Sangha, a lay Rinzai organisation founded by Shinzan Miyamae, has integrated yoga practices in their teachings.[3][4] According to Zenway teacher Julian Skinner, Zen practice in general, and Zen Yoga in particular, emphasize three intertwined areas – physical alignment, the flow of energy in the body and awareness or mindfulness (Japanese “nen” 念).[5]

The Zenyoga association in Hungary offers a combination of Zen and yoga.[6] International affiliates include groups in Celje (Slovenia), Berlin (Germany) and Cape Cod (USA).[7]
