Welcome to the Dahn Foundation

Welcome to the online home of the Dahn Foundation, an organization whose mission is to share the principles of health, happiness and peace through a network of volunteers who reside in 15 major cities across the United States.

Dahn Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization that was founded in 2006 by Dahn Yoga and Health Centers, Inc and inspired by Ilchi Lee, the founder of Brain Education System Training (BEST) programs, including Dahn Yoga and DahnMuDo. In 1980, Ilchi Lee helped one man recover his health by teaching a free class in a local park in South Korea. Today, Dahn Foundation is igniting this spirit through various free or low cost community classes.

For 27 years BEST programs have only been available in Dahn Yoga centers, now through Dahn Foundation, BEST health and wellness programs can spread widely into communities and diverse groups throughout the United States.
