Yoga Teleport

or or

The Yoga Teleport is one of Dhalsim's special moves. Executed by pressing either forward, down, then down-forward or backward, down, then down-backward and then pressing either all three punches or all three kicks, Dhalsim adopts a levitating "full lotus" position and teleports to another location. Where he teleports depends on whether the player uses the forward motions or the backward motions, and also by whether the player pressed the three punches or the three kicks. Since Dhalsim's adoption of the move, many other characters have demonstrated their own versions (such as M. Bison, Akuma, and Seth), but Dhalsim's is the only one which can be executed in mid-jump.

The teleport can be used to get away from an opponent bearing down on him, to suddenly launch an attack (usually from behind), or perhaps to simply psych out the opponent and keep them guessing. It also has notable use in helping Dhalsim hinder an opponent from dodging his slow-moving Yoga Catastrophe Ultra Combo. Its use also serves to help fill the Super Meter.
