Qi Gong

Qi (pronounced "chee") means life force energy. Gong means skillful practice. We put energy and time into working with our Qi to balance the Yin and the Yang, open the meridians and strengthen the internal organs. The increased energy flow awakens the natural regenerative power of body and spirit. Through breathing exercises, special movements and self massage techniques we can restore our body to its original state of health.

Zen Qi Gong will lay a foundation for health and vitality by integrating joint mobility, flowing movement, energizing breathwork, and mindfulness practices. A wide variety of methods are explored. Accessible and open to all levels, It is the practice to begin and maintain your Qi Gong training.

Shaolin Ba Duan Jin

Ba Duan Jin (Eight-Part Treasure Form) is one of the most powerful Qi Gong forms for health. Andrew teaches the orginal form practiced at the Shaolin Temple in China. A balance of Yin and Yang training, these eight powerful movement groups are a perfect first Qi Gong form to learn.

Shaolin Yi Jin Jing

Yi Jin Jing (Muscle/Tendon Changing Classic) changes the tendons of the internal organs and strengthens them from the inside out. It also transforms our external muscles and tendons. Yi Jin Jing is a nourishing and strengthening Qi Gong and a natural progression from Ba Duan Jin.

Daoist Qi Gong

Based primarily on the Zhan Zhuang (Standing Like a Tree) tradition, Daoist Qi Gong revitalizes the body through age-old methods of relaxation and the natural cultivation of energy. The techniques are simple, but the wisdom which has refined them over the centuries is profound.
