What is Qigong?

Qigong is medical in that it is one of the five pillars of Chinese medicine, the others being acupuncture, massage, herbs and Feng Shui. It’s martial in that every martial artist will do qigong as their foundation for health and energy. It’s spiritual in that it has roots in China’s Daoist and Buddhist traditions. In Daoism, the cultivation of qi through movement practices like qigong was part of the path to harmony with the natural world and Oneness with Dao.

What You’ll Learn

Each day of this program is 25-35 minutes long and includes a lesson to learn the movements and a practice to embody them. The last practice includes all 18 forms you will learn!
