Description of Basic and Intermediate Chi Kung

Fundamentals of Chi Kung

Chi Kung is a type of Chinese Yoga. This class will focus on Chi Kung's soft and hard fundamental techniques, mind/body movement, breathing techniques, stretching, and the energy pathways of the body and may be taught through the Wild Goose Chi Kung Form.

Wild Goose Chi Kung

Considered a bird of longevity, the Wild Goose Qigong form is a graceful form combines fundamental techniques of Qigong. It is playfully, sensual, gently stretches the muscles, opens the joints, stimulates the body's principal energy pathways, gateways, and acu-points, as well as integrates the mind/body/spirit.  The form also embodies meditation techniques of imagery, focus, and breathing. A continuous form of 64 movements, once learned this routine takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes to perform.

There are some easy steps that you can use to help relieve stress related tension. This class will introduce some to the potent points on the meridians (energy pathways). With the touch of one's own hand using massage, gentle pressure, and or focused intent, facilitate the release of tension promoting the circulation of ones Chi (internal energy flow) in that area. Students will focus on the techniques of Acupressure as they learn the 12 meridians and their corresponding organs and potent points.
