Start the new year by doing something good for yourself. This workshop combines a Qigong set with fundamental Zhan Zhuang (standing meditation), so you learn the exercises and can keep practising at home. The session ends with Daaoyin (self-massage).
Qigong has roots in Chinese medicine going back several thousand years. Here the focus is heightened awareness and mindful movement, built into a short sequence where breathing and movement are coordinated and the feeling of flow is explored. Depending on the group, the teacher will lead either one of the Emei Qigong sets or an element Qigong.
Standing meditation is a central element in both Internal Martial Arts and Qigong. It helps you integrate body and mind, and it develops harmony, inner strength, grounding, awareness and calm. You will learn simple standing postures and receive corrections so you can continue on your own.
