SUMMARY:QiGong - 3 Week Series
DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in learning more about the practice of QiGong? QiGong is a traditional Chinese practice that concentrates on opening the energy pathways (meridians) in the body for optimal flow. Exercises combine breath work\, movement\, and meditation to help facilitate balance and wellbeing throughout a person’s entire system. \nIn this series\, participants will be introduced to QiGong Foundations: Eight Pieces of Brocade \nEight Pieces of Brocade\, or Ba Duan Jin\, is one of the most widely practiced internal energy forms in the world. Dating back to China’s Song Dynasty\, this QiGong stands the test of time because it nurtures the chi\, and circulates it throughout the body for enhanced wellness and balance. It is a good choice for beginners\, as it provides reinforcement for the ideal standing structure while using movement and dynamic tension to lubricate the fascia and strengthen muscles and ligaments. \nParticipants will experience the entire form\, learn about the organ systems that are directly benefitted\, work on establishing proper posture and breath work\, and be introduced to the importance of uniting mind\, breath\, and movement. This is a standing/movement QiGong\, but those requiring chairs can be accommodated. \nThis class is perfect for the beginner and no equipment is needed. Please wear comfortable clothes and plan on being either barefoot\, in grippy socks or a separate pair of shoes other than street shoes. Drop Ins accepted at $20/class. Classes are Aug. 12\, 19\, 26th \nThe Presenter \nSiFu Marie Richter has been a dedicated QiGong and Tai Chi Chuan practitioner for over 20 years\, and an instructor for much of that time. She is a student and disciple of SiGung Steve Kleppe\, whose school\, ShaoLin Center\, served the greater SE Wisconsin area. \n
