Movement and breath in Meditation
Tian Tao Yoga, a longevity exercise practised in secret within Chinese monasteries until the Cultural Revolution, comprises a complete system of profound meditative movement forms for self-healing and regeneration.
This exquisitely gentle yet powerful method is very easy to learn, can be done by any individual at a any level of fitness, without requiring students to be athletic or flexible. That means elderly and disabled people restricted in their mobility can easily practice the exercises without strain.
Tian Tao aligns body, mind and spirit with far reaching effects not limited to the body alone. Often practitioners observe themselves rejuvenating and looking younger due to the renewal and cultivation of primal life essence or jing.

Tian Tao doesn’t require endurance or strength, just the willingness to practice regularly. Just 10 minutes a day brings tangible results.
The beneficial effects can be experienced in very early stages, even in the first 2 hours of instruction. Advanced meditators will discover to their surprise that the incredible efficiency of the practices allows them to quickly and effortlessly tap into meditative states that they experienced only after several weeks of a painstaking seated meditation retreat..
The rejuvenation that Tian Tao affords only unfolds with daily practice and far surpasses conventional fitness training or pure mental calming methods of seated meditation.

Authorization and Master lineage
Julia Kant first learned Tian Tao Yoga under the trademark “Hsin Tao”, a trademarked variation of Ratziel Bander, a former student of the Chinese Grandmaster Ho Lo. In 2008 Julia was the first European who was authorized to teach “Hsin Tao” and singlehandedly initiated hundreds of people into the practice of zenbuddhist Yoga.
In 2012 she began to teach the system in the independent format of “Hsin Tao Essentials”, free from the dogma of secrecy and artificial mystification.
Further development took place due to the ongoing contact to the Master-Student of the Chinese grandmaster, Tina Barry. Following in the footsteps of grandmaster HoLo, Tina shares her knowledge and expertise open-heartedly with Julia to support the authentic revelation of Tian Tao in Europe. It is a tremendous blessing that the adulterated, yet still effective variation Julia learned as ‘Hsin Tao’ has now been returned to its pure original simplicity and power. A number of techniques never taught before were complemented and existing exercises were further refined with correct interpretations according to the original teachings of the Grandmaster. Julia, recognizing how she had formerly been deluded by the corporate version of the ancient techniques returned to the genuine source, supporting her decision to teach the system hence forth under the name Tian Tao Yoga – Divine Union through the Heavenly Way and teach the original system from the basics.
Private sessions
Julia is available for private sessions in Berlin and other cities before and after workshops. For those who are not able to come to see her in person she offers Zoom Sessions. She also offers Webinars.
