Testimonial

An Asahi class led by A1 teacher trainer Deb Wahlberg meets at the Little Finland Museum & Gift Shop from Easter to Christmas, and in a church in downtown Ironwood, Mi during the winter months. Luana has been a regular participant and gave us this testimonial. Since Asahi comes from Finland, it appeals to people of Finnish descent. But people of all backgrounds love it!

"If Asahi had a motto, it might be: Moderation in everything - including moderation."

- Ilpo Jalamo 

Don:
I am a 68-year-old male who has osteoarthritis in both hips and in the lower back as well as a hip injury from a skiing accident that has given me moderate levels of discomfort whenever partaking in moderate forms of exercise such as hiking, bike riding, snowshoeing, or cross-country skiing.  Before I became aware of Asahi, I would find it easy to come up with an excuse not to exercise because of the discomfort associated with the afflictions above.  

Fortunately, I also knew that sitting around and not doing any physical activity, in the long run, would be far worse.  
In my pre-Asahi days, before starting any moderate physical activity, I would find it necessary to liberally apply CBD lotion to all the areas of my body that would hurt whenever I went hiking, bike riding, snowshoeing, or cross-country skiing.  

Ever since I have become an Asahi practitioner, my osteoarthritis pain has completely disappeared and I no longer need to apply any CBD lotion anywhere.  Practicing Asahi truly is “Prevention without medication”.  It goes without saying that Asahi has improved both my physical and mental health.  Learning about Asahi, practicing Asahi, and teaching Asahi as a B-Level instructor locally has given me pleasure as a life-long learner and a sense of purpose in my retirement years.

The Asahi student I am posing with in the photo is 100 years old! Now I am enrolled in the A1 teacher training program and was in Finland studying with the developers of Asahi!
