10 ways Qigong and Tai Chi improve your health and well-being: some well-known, some quite unexpected.
10 Health BenefitsEach Qigong session is founded on the same principle: regulating the body, the breath and the mind – 3 aspects of one being. Each session also has its own focus.
Using sequences of Qigong moves flowing together with music to improve the flow of Qi through the body and mind.
8 Silk Brocades
Probably the best known of all Qigong sets and one of the most ancient. Perfect combination of movements with a meditative focus. If you are looking to reduce stress this is your class.
Using a dedicated set of Qigong moves designed to work with a seated position to improve neck, shoulder and spine mobility and calm the mind. It’s accessible to those with mobility restrictions but valuable for all.
