My name is Petr Hokr. I’m a Czech citizen and have been living in Poland for the past 36 years.
For the last 6 years, I’ve been both a student and a certified instructor of Master Zhen Hua Yang. My journey with the Calligraphy Health System began during a weekend course with Dagmara Skalska. After just those two days, I felt like my body had finally started listening to me. I knew I wanted more. I started asking Dagmara how I could go deeper into this practice. She told me that a two-week course would soon be held in Gdańsk – so without hesitation, I signed up for Level 1 and Level 2.
That’s when something truly life-changing began. I had found what I had been searching for over many years. It was the joy of my body and mind – a joy like that of an unspoiled child. After the course, I knew I had found myself, and I felt a deep need to share this with others.
Six months later, I travelled to Germany for Level 3 training with Master Yang. There, I received a temporary instructor certificate in Calligraphy Health. The following year, I attended another course with Master Yang, this time in Poland, at Talaria near Warsaw – again for Level 3 – where I received my official instructor certificate.
A few months later, I returned to Germany for Level 4. This year, I’ve continued my journey with a course in Poland, at Dojo Stara Wieś, where I took part in both the Calligraphy Elbow training and Level 5.
Looking back at all of this, I deeply feel that Master Zhen Hua Yang doesn’t only give us tools for practice – he gives us joy, and more importantly, a never-ending flow of real energy. It’s energy worth sharing with others. It uplifts us, and through it, we can help make the world a better place. As Master Yang says: only sensitive people can truly improve the world.
Now, I lead both online and in-person workshops – some of which include participants who are living with, or recovering from, cancer. I remember the first time they came – their faces were grey, their eyes dull, and there was no joy. They looked around at each other, comparing how they moved.
That’s when I said: “Dear ones, each of you has a different body, and different abilities. That’s not the point. What we’re learning is the diaphragmatic breath and the foundational movements of the practice.”
Master Yang gave us the key to inner love – something worth sharing. I encouraged them to practice from that space. And everything began to shift.
The students stopped comparing. They began to focus on their breath, on the integrity of their movement. Now, those same students are completely transformed. Their eyes sparkle. Their skin has color again. They’ve regained joy and inner calm.
And for me, as their instructor, that’s the most beautiful gift – for them and for myself.
Dear friends, it’s worth sharing the beauty we’ve been given by the great Master Zhen Hua Yang.
