Qi Gong Workshop Series for Health & Longevity: A Progressive Journey.
This series of four 60-minute workshops is designed as a structured progression, guiding you from foundational body awareness to complete movement sequences rooted in the traditional Qi Gong system.
Workshop 1 - Stretching the Tendons & Learning the Flow (Foundation) This session focuses on tendon and fascia stretching to prepare the body for movement, improve joint mobility, and reduce stiffness. You will also learn how to connect individual movements into continuous, flowing sequences.
Workshop 2 - Baduanjin (Structure & Internal Awareness)
With the foundation established, this workshop introduces Baduanjin, a classical Qi Gong form. The eight movements provide a clear structure to refine posture, breathing and intention. Compared to the first session, the focus shifts from simply moving well to moving with purpose and internal regulation.
Workshop 3 - Shibashi (Flow & Continuity) Now the emphasis evolves into continuity and rhythm.
Shibashi (Set 1) builds on the structure of Baduanjin but introduces more fluid, repetitive sequences that encourage relaxation and coordination. The movements are softer and more continuous, allowing you to integrate breath, posture and flow into a seamless practice.
Workshop 4 - Lian Gong (Application & Functional Health) The final stage brings everything into practical application. Lian Gong (Set 1) uses structured, therapeutic movements to address common patterns of tension and discomfort, particularly in the neck, shoulders and lower back. With the mobility, control and awareness developed in the previous sessions, you can now perform these exercises with greater precision and effectiveness.
Overall Progression:
Workshop 1 – Prepare the body (Mobility & Flow)
Workshop 2 - Build Structure (Posture & Breathe)
Workshop 3 – Develop continuity (Fluid Movement & Coordination)
Workshop 4 – Apply the practice (Functional Health & Prevention)
