Lo Ban Pai Series
GRAVITY
The gateway practice to reopen your heart and reconnect to your body.
12-week self-paced movement practice specifically designed to introduce inner harmony, activating a chain reaction of profound awakenings.
Now available as a comprehensive online 12-week study program, this is the first time ever that a practice of this magnitude has been made available. It was previously only offered face-to-face a few times a year.
Gravity is the initiatory and foundational set of movements that introduces the Lo Ban Pai system, which was developed by Lujan Matus.
Gravity is a practice of movements designed to slowly reconnect you to the inner workings of your energetic capacity through the fascial system, which reveals the kinetic lines in the body.
The movements taught in the Gravity Series may seem simple to follow but offer a deeply rewarding and enriching experience that goes beyond a physical practice into multidimensionality.
It’s a spiritual gateway to the heart of universal communion.
Who is this for?
Those who have never done any practice like this before, but are looking for a gateway experience that is tangible, immediately available and guided along the way.
Great for new practitioners who are looking for deeper and more meaningful connections to their body, mind and spirit.
Students of other martial arts practices who want to experience the internal expansion available through the Lo Ban Pai system.
People who are seeking effective, and unfailing support in their healing journey.
Previous students of Lujan who want to recalibrate, refresh and update their practice.
Those who are looking to increase personal power through committing to a personal practice that builds self-mastery, discipline, and perseverance.
"The Gravity Series apparent simplicity, in terms of the movements being immediately absorbed via the practitioner's kinesthetic intelligence, is paralleled by beautiful and complex feelings generated via the internal movements brought forth through the access to a new kind of understanding.
Gravity series has had quite an impact on how I would generally feel practicing all the other sets I studied with Lujan. It's like a major upgrade. The series adds gravity to the magnetism cultivated through the other forms and allows the practitioner to stabilize the flow via increased grounding, clarity and discernment. In other words,Gravity provides that silence which enables the natural arrangement of bodily postures so as to benefit the entire muscular system, bone, and cartilage as well as the entire fascia network.
Lujan told us this set introduces the practitioner to the six directions and the two harmonies which is the hands moving, creating the gravitational pull on the legs and the head traveling towards the ceiling. It seems to me that the harmonies allow the accessibility of multiple perspectives which are continuously spiraling towards or far from the central axis. Activating the central vortices of the hands visibly modified my depth of field and awareness gained new reference points to use. While practicing, everything feels, much more intensely, and every time I connect and keep constant the concomitant directional awareness, an effect similar with pulling down the curtains in a darkened room is created. And while the center of gravity continuously changes, the internal structure (being born) is simultaneously revealed.
The gravitational pull of every gesture now becomes exponentially enlarged and the most intimate subtleties become known to the practitioner. Stabilization of the central pole and the increase of the base-plate allow for an increase in centripetal force as well which allows the expansion of the upper strata towards the unknown. It is like coming out of a shell into the unrestricted vastness where the subtle lattice is not bound by any form. In fact, the effects of practicing Gravity can be noticed in every aspect of life be it rough movement (like walking or running) or soft (micro gestures or internal movements). Everything is improved to the point of becoming a new point of reference, different from the previous anchored position.
I would definitely recommend all who have studied other forms before to take up the Gravity set in order to experience a very different hue of the same exquisite spectrum."

More about Lo Ban Pai
Lo Ban Pai is a comprehensive art that enlivens reservoirs of empathic communion through movements that inspire feelings of heartfelt gratitude. This in turn manifests a true internal standpoint of personal power that brings a genuine ethical view to the forefront of the witness.
Comprised of elegant movement sequences and profound awareness techniques with a deeply meditative core,
Lo Ban Pai recalibrates perception away from a socially engineered mindset and towards a heart-based approach. Translated as elegantly flourishing spirals, Lo Ban aptlydescribes the signature coiling motions of the movement family, and Pai indicates a dynamic hand or fist.
What others are saying
"Attending Gravity was like learning to communicate in another language - the original primal one that we have been programmed by society to forget.
Working with Lujan and learning Lo Ban Pai helped me expedite a process that would have been difficult, if not impossible, without his guidance.
There is way more to life than meets the eye, and I'm so grateful that Lujan sees it, gets it, and really wants to teach us how to rise above the mundane to discover what is real."
LISA
"Gravity series brought an energetically enlivening art to an even more tangible level for me. It’s really amazing to feel the energy so heavily and grounding, and also light and vacuous. The Gravity Series movements of Lo Ban Pai are easy to learn and are very profound.
There is always more refinement to pay attention to and feeling energy flow is always a renewing and enjoyable experience. I felt more electromagnetism than I have ever before with this set of movements. In Gravity Series you will know what it feels like to energetically spiral into the ground and really connect with the energy of your bones.
You will feel this dense electromagnetic energy rising up your central channel, becoming light and vacuous as you draw it up to your heart center, and condense it in your core or dantien.
This is very joyful and promotes all-around health and well-being. Moving gravity is a very good description of what it felt like to me. It is a very grounding practice, as well as uplifting and joyous.
There is also martial application hidden within the gestures, though this is not the focus. Gravity series focuses on becoming aware of energy flow within us and moving this energy purposefully. It’s like a moving meditation that teases subtlety into substance. Your internal dialogue shuts off and you explore the potential (energetic dynamics) of being a magical human being."

"By practicing the Gravity Series, new sensations and perceptions appeared. During my movements, the air which embraced my being felt full and aware as my hands moved through it and my body received something from outside…
My acuity increased the perception of colors and the dimension of the furniture in the room became not so solid as I perceived usually. These are new sensations in my body and they are as Lujan described during the lessons."
DANA
"I have been practicing different forms of Tai Chi for twenty years. What is most important to know with the Gravity Series is it straightens the lines of energy that I am.
There are pools and rivers that I am. But because of who I think I am, the momentum of the past is what I am living with. Jagged and stagnant. This has been a large part of my life journey to understand and heal the situation that I was born into and inherited.
The Gravity Series has been moving me out of the old and birthing my true self. The original midline that my body was born with at this moment is straight. The body and spirit's unimpeded essence is found anew within the Gravity Form. It is opening, beautiful, loving, and grounding. The essence of self-care and realization. It opens you to perceive the six directions, as you are living in this fragile moment, so close to any kind of death, with every full breath.
The Gravity Series opens what needs to be. The luminous cocoon; awareness itself.
It is a complete practice, and it is changing my life. I have now dropped all other Tai Chi forms and am only practicing the Gravity Series morning and evening.
This is not hyperbole. Words simply fall short of the experience the practice has given. I am so thankful that Lujan has given this teaching online. I live in Europe so going to see him to learn would be very difficult."
