Qigong
Qigong is a Chinese healing art that incorporates intentional movement, meditation, breathwork and visualisations.
“It is important to find a balance of yin and yang, not just in qigong, but in everyday life. In movement, seek stillness and rest. In rest, be mindful and attentive.”

Qigong teaches us proficiency. By focusing on form and technique we begin to develop precision and strong body-mind connection. Deliberate movement improves balance, coordinations and stability. It teaches control, builds stamina and improves strength and endurance. The fluid and repetitive movements of Qigong calm the mind and regulate the nervous system are accessible to anyone.
Qigong doesn't challenge better time under tension (think presses, hangs) but it dares you to be here, now.
In Qigong and TCM, Five Elements outline the relationship between the different elements in nature and the life force, Qi. Each phase corresponds with a season, direction, internal organ, body tissue, emotion, sound.
During our time together we will explore different forms corresponding with the Five Elements system which allows us to cultivate a deeper understanding of natural law and honour our bodies, minds and spirits.
