Qigong
What is Qigong?
Qigong (also referred to as chi kung) is an ancient meditative healing art form, often referred to as a form of moving meditation that promotes health and wellness. Qigong works through the use of Qi, which is defined as vital life force energy. The goal of this practise is to circulate and boost vital Qi energy and to harmonize the body, breath and mind as one. Movements are simple and easy to follow along with and can be practiced by those of all age and fitness levels.
