What to expect
In this introductory qigong course you will learn the first set of the ‘Shibashi 18’ form – a set of movements suitable for complete beginners, including people with limited mobility. As you practice, you will improve your posture and also learn to breathe, meditate and relax.
Qigong enhances flexibility, balance, muscular strength and has a positive impact on the respiratory system. The meditative elements increase self-awareness, emotional regulation and relaxation.
