About

Looking for a gentle yet powerful way to improve your movement, reduce stress, and reconnect with your body? This 8-week Qi Gong for Beginners course introduces the foundations of Qi Gong through the Keystone Qi Gong set of Ba Gua Zhang — a traditional internal practice that combines slow movement, posture, breathing and focused attention.

Guided by an experienced tutor, you'll gradually learn the core exercises that underpin Ba Gua Zhang. Through regular practice, you'll develop greater body awareness, coordination, balance and relaxation while exploring traditional concepts of Qi, Yin and Yang, and Daoist philosophy.

Suitable for complete beginners, this course provides a structured introduction to a practice that many people continue enjoying for years as part of their overall health and wellbeing.
