Practising CHI KUNG we can smooth, regulate and boost the flow of energy in the body.
What is CHI KUNG
|
Chi Kung (or Qi Gong) is a practise, based in Taoist philosophy, of cultivating and moving our Chi or vital energy. It looks a little like Tai Chi, but instead of learning a sequence of movements that are strung together, Qi Gong forms tend to be simpler, and are more focused on bringing health and balance to your body. We practise curiosity and awareness of ourselves; our posture; our physical habits; how we breathe and the quality of our feeling, sensation or our Chi; and how and where we hold tension. Then using Chi Kung postures and movements (or forms) we open and strengthen some parts of our bodies, while releasing and allowing other parts of our bodies to become softer and more relaxed, moving the Chi to build health.
Specific forms can target specific areas of our bodies or health or can be appropriate to changing seasons. |

For class info, times and prices
Chi Kung Class
Simple warm ups and postures are learnt and practised. None of it is complicated, and can be practised by absolutely anyone - beginners and advanced practitioners alike will do the same exercises, but the experience does unfold with time. We can encourage various paths or aspects of our energy with specifically targeted forms, for instance, seasonal movements, or forms specifically to calm, ground or energise.
Benefits can be felt immediately, however after a few sessions effects may become more pronounced. The saying goes that every time you do a Chi Kung practise you place a sheet of paper on a stack (the stack being your “pile of good health”). It doesn’t matter whether you practise consecutive days or not, but every practise increases your good health.
Lizzie's classes are experiential and informative, as well as being fun and unpressured.
