Based on the same model as acupuncture, ie., Traditional Chinese Medicine, Qigong is a life-supporting approach from ancient China. It involves easy, playful movements, self-massage, sounds, and meditations that improve our overall mental & physical health. Qigong is appropriate and accessible for almost ANY body, that is, it’s powerful without being strenuous and can be adapted for almost anyone. Classes will focus on a Qigong practice that is grounding to the nervous system, increases vitality, and enhances physical and psychological resilience.
