Level 1 and Level 2 Spring Forest Qigong
This medical Qigong works with the body's energy (Qi). When the Qi becomes blocked in the body, sickness, pain and other health problems may occur. Through simple breathing, sounds, movements and meditation, you will learn to remove blockages and balance the body's energy so that it can heal. Qigong heals the whole body – mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. These techniques can relieve physical pain, reduce stress, depression and address many other health concerns. SFQ also works well with modern day medicine.
LEVEL 1
July 15, 22 and 29 or
September 16, 23 and 30
Class will cover: history of Qigong; general principles of Qigong; energy channels and meridians; 4 key elements of Qigong; Qi breathing; yin/yang philosophy; 6 causes of energy blockages; 6 keys to success; "Sword Finger technique" to help others; 6 active exercises to help balance and heal the body; Small Universe - the most powerful exercise in SFQ.

Qi-ssage Class
June 26 or July 17 or September 25 from 12:00 PM to 4:30 PM
This is a fun class and a hands on experience. Developed by Master Chunyi Lin, Qi-ssage is used to activate the flow of energy throughout the body to promote healing. Qi-ssage uses both the energy principles of Qigong and the touching and physical stimulation of massage. Key energy points are stimulated with gentle touch, in a specific order to open energy channels and restore the flow of energy.
There will be plenty of time to practice on each other. Any one can learn it and it is a wonderful gift to share with yourself or your loved ones. Helps with headaches, digestion, heart, lung and liver issues, relaxes and vitalizes the body. You will love it.
Fee: $55 ($50 each for couples)
