I love this Qigong with a passion, and it has become my way of life.I am deeply committed to sharing these practices so others can also benefit from exploring movement, inner alchemy and breathing techniques for healing, transformation, increasing energy reserves, and deep relaxation and stress reduction.

What will the 30 minute session look like?

THIS WILL BE A FLOW CLASS - LEARNING BY DOING

I will teach you a set of simple, gentle practices that you can integrate into your daily schedule in 10, 20 or 30 minute stretches. We will progressively build on your understanding of the practices to enhance their efficacy and learn to get into a flow state.

The sessions will end promptly after 30 minutes, but if you do have questions related to the practices, you are welcome to email me. I will check in with you at the end of the first and the final sessions as well.

Qigong offers practical exercises that hold the capacity to heal old injuries, release emotional trauma, restore vital energy, and rejuvenate your spirit. Qigong is also a powerful exercise for preventative health care from illness and disease states. White Tiger Qigong combines ancient practices with modern sports science for optimal effect. Dynamic exercises are coupled with rhythmic, deep breathing, and harnessed intention of mind focus and spirit.

If you are unable to attend on the day, the session will be recorded and available via private link until the following session (effectively for 7 days), so you can catch up.

About Your Instructor: You will be expertly guided by Sarah Divine, Senior White Tiger Qigong Instructor, who also holds a master's degree in sport and exercise science. Sarah has been practising Qigong for over 12 years and teaching since 2015. She trained initially with Master Mantak Chia in the Universal Healing Tao Qigong system, and has been studying and training with Master Tevia Feng in White Tiger Qigong since 2016. She is now the most qualified White Tiger Qigong instructor in Australia.

Sarah is a member of the International Institute of Complementary Therapists and Ausactive (formerly Fitness Australia), as well as an associate member of ESSA (Exercise & Sport Science Australia).

Practical Considerations

Please wear comfortable, loose clothing. We either train barefoot, or with flexible thin-soled shoes. Also, make sure that your stomach is not full. I recommend eating at the very latest one hour prior to practising Qigong (and then only a light meal). For a heavier meal, I would leave at least two hours between eating and practice.

You need the space of a yoga mat, plus sufficient space to swing your arms around in all directions. Some of the Qigong forms are walking forms, but these can be modified to do in place if you don't have sufficient space. Please have a chair handy for some seated practice.

If you have any health concerns regarding any part of the practice, please contact me in advance. I am a qualified exercise scientist, but you need to get clearance to exercise from an exercise physiologist or other suitable health professional if you have an injury or a chronic health condition.
