Qi gong is an ancient Chinese health care system
which combines gentle physical movements, breathing techniques and focused intentions, to cultivate and move Qi (life force or vital energy) throughout the body.
Together the exercises promote self-healing and health maintenance through relaxation, healthy breathing, good posture and meditation.
The morning classes are based on the Elemental Alchemy Trainings taught in our training program. Elemental Alchemy Qigong is an easy, gentle form of exercise that will keep you agile, flexible and in the flow of life. Encourage healthy qi flow throughout the body - leading to improved or enhanced health, the maintenance of good health and the healing of illness. A meditative body-mind class that encourages connection between the body-mind and a deeper connection to self.

Looking to deepen your Qi Gong practise?
Check out our Elemental Alchemy - Qi Gong + Energy Medicine Practitioner and Teacher Training.
Elemental Alchemy is a progressive approach to qi gong that incorporates classic styles and philosophies with modern bodymind and energy concepts. The approach explores body and chi awareness as a way to deepen into our internal chi flow through movement, stillness, meditation and breath. A creative space is sought to allow our essential nature to express itself and bring about transformations. The approach emphasizes the five elements as the foundation of qi gong. The workshops in Qi Gong are an ongoing series that interested participants can enter at any point. The workshops can either be attended individually or as a whole series.
The workshops include qi gong forms, meditations, plant medicine applications and energy medicine practices based in a somatic and biodynamic environment.
