Ba Duan Jin

The Ba Duan Jin or the “Eight pieces of Silken Brocade” comprises of eight simple movements which regulate the whole body promoting vitality and balance. As the name suggests these Qigong exercises imbue the practitioners body with the qualities of silk; strength, suppleness and brilliance.

Eight Psychic Channels

The body has eight extraordinary vessels which are our connection with universal Qi. This practice combines contrasting high resistance movements to break apart blockages with gentle flowing movements to help disperse excess energy. It is an extremely cleansing practice that helps rebalance the vessels, meridians and energy centers of the body and reconnects us to universal Qi.

Budizhen Qigong

A practice that combines techniques from the harder movements of Buddhist Shaolin Qigong, w  ith the softer flowing movements of Daoist Wudang Qigong. This practice shows us how to project our Qi from the Dantian to various parts of the body, creating strength while still remaining grounded. Although this is a martial Qigong form, this series of movements promotes vitality, rejuvenation and immunity.

Walking Meditation

“As you start to walk the way, the way appears”-Rumi.
Connecting with oneself while walking in nature has found appreciation throughout the centuries in many different cultures. The Daoist tradition of walking meditation is paradoxically precise and technical yet flowing and intuitive. Through soft discipline one learns to sink and flow with the movements of the universe.

Zhan Zhuang

A grounding practice which teaches us to connect our energy with the Earth. Although seemingly still, there is incredible power and movement as a tree begins its’ journey from a seed, spreads its’ roots and pushes towards the sky. Zhan Zhuang, also known as standing meditation is a practice which teaches us to observe and understand our internal movement. Often challenging and confronting to begin with, through gentle dedication this often becomes the favorite practice of many.
