When the body is worm enough we reduce the chance of injuries for muscles, or over stretching, Therefore its important always to do good Jass-U.
Jassu start in the beginning of every class, although it can be taught as a separate independent Art of its own.
Each art has its own related Jass-U. It can be short, long or independent. Semm-jasani has soft and gentle jassu, long movements and deep breathing. Boabom has more dynamic and stronger jassu, and Yaanbao jassu connect us to the elements we are using.
