There’s also new dynamic stretching and footwork sequences as used in the Iranian Zurkhaneh (house of strength) during Pahlavani training ceremonies.

Pahlavāni is the world’s oldest martial arts conditioning system developed by Persians over 2,500 years ago. This online course is an amalgamation of the Variations manual and instructional videos and will teach you the principals and fundamental Pahlāvani (Persian Yoga) exercises and variations together with complete regressions and progressions.

In Persian and in the Zurkhaneh (House of strength) these variations are referred to as Shireen-kaari which literally translates to ‘making it sweet’. The purpose of the Variations is to progress both strength and skill of the practitioner as well as breath new life into the practice of Persian Yoga™.
