Qigong and Internal Energy Work
Qigong is an ancient system of energy work developed by Taoist masters thousands of years ago. It was mainly used for healing the body and supporting spiritual practices such as meditation.

This class focuses on standing poses and movement sets that are part of the medical qigong system. Mindful standing and movement will help support meditation practice. This is an excellent class for beginners and will lay a good foundation for martial arts (Tai Chi), and a healthier body. Instructor: Sarah McMullen.
