Introduction to Qi Gong
Are you looking for a way of life that includes graceful movement, deep breathing, slowing down, and somatic healing? Join us for an introduction to Qi Gong practice and help grow a community of practitioners centered around Big Island.
Qigong (chee-gung) is a traditional Chinese mind-body practice that combines gentle, flowing movements with deep breathing and mental focus to reduce stress and improve health. We will practice the Eight Brocades of Silk form, and discuss the development of a practice that can be practiced at home or with a group.
The Eight Brocades of Silk (Ba Duan Jin) is an ancient 8-step routine combining gentle stretches, focused breathing, and mindful movement. It is a highly accessible practice designed to build core strength, reduce stress, and cultivate overall well-being.
