    For many, this art is considered “yoga for the brain”, since it has calming and stress relieving effects on the people that practice it. It can also improve one’s confidence and concentration.  It allows you to let go of expectations, and really live in the moment without having to worry about anything else. 

    Cet art est considéré comme un « yoga pour le cerveau », car il a des effets calmants et anti-stress sur les personnes qui le pratiquent. Cela peut également améliorer la confiance et la concentration. Il vous permet d'abandonner vos attentes et de vraiment vivre l'instant présent sans avoir à vous soucier de quoi que ce soit d'autre.
