These powerful exercises harmonise the body, breath and mind for maximising relaxation and health. Learn practices to successfully improve wellbeing and mood, enhance recovery from injury and illness, increase flexibility and mobility... and much more! Read more about Qigong HERE

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM A CLASS:

Each class includes a balance of dynamic & gentle techniques practiced standing or seated.  You will be guided to work within your own individual capacity. The gentle exercises support you to gradually build core strength, simultaneously strengthening the lower body to improve your balance, flexibility, & functional mobility; plus, the exercises support correct functioning of the internal organs & body systems, for optimal health.

All exercises are practiced slowly & steadily to avoid strain or injury. Movements are easy to follow, so you can relax & enjoy the practice as you participate. No equipment is required, & the exercises can be performed just about anywhere you have enough space to swing your arms.

Expect to feel greater lightness in your body, happiness in your heart, and freedom of spirit.

Scientific research confirms that Qigong helps prevent and manage many different health problems including:

• Immune dysfunction
• Mental health issues

Qigong exercise is good for everyone, however it is especially beneficial for older adults, people who want to manage stress, and anyone who needs a healthy movement routine. Qigong has been shown to prevent disabilities that come with age, & to deeply relax the nervous system. Meta-analysis studies also demonstrate that Qigong supports better sleep, improves bone density, & cultivates stamina.

WHO CAN BENEFIT:
Men & women, young & old, athletes & sedentary people or those with limited or restricted movement will all benefit. Gentle & flexible movements mean the exercises support all levels of ability. Practices can be tailored to individual needs making it an ideal aid to recovery from illness or injury.

Qigong is complementary to whatever form of exercise or therapy you are already practicing, it will only enhance the benefits to you. The practices can be tailored to your individual needs depending on your goals & physical abilities. This makes it a good exercise choice for just about anyone looking to improve range of motion, relaxation, fitness, or health.
