Dawn Holst’s Summary

My professional carreer includes software sales, fund raising and instruction (both scholastic and yogic). I always look for synergy between my love of education, commitment to be the best at any endeavor I begin, and my devotion to qi gong and yoga.

Dawn Holst’s Specialties:

Currently, I am committing myself to launching qi-fense - an anti-phishing and brand monitoring service. I have taken on the mission of helping to make the Internet a safer place and improving accountability on the web.

My yoga and qi gong training is ongoing. I recently returned from Beijing where I completed coursework in Qigong, Tui Na and Chinese Massage and this work continues to infuse my practice.

Reviews include...

Metapsychology writes "It is energetic and very dramatic. This (Qi) burst presents a side of exercising that is rarely presented on DVD: the beauty of the performance. The Qi Burst is as much a dance as it is an exercise."

YourExcersizeDVDs.com writes "This DVD is different from your usual Yoga routine, and a welcome change."
