Five Seasons Qigong: Winter Calm and Storing

WE HAVE DISABLED REGISTRATION DUE TO HIGH INTEREST IN THIS WORKSHOP AND SPACE CONSIDERATIONS.
Please contact us by email if you would still like to come and we may be able to accept you if we can rearrange venues.

We continue our popular series of 'immersion' weekend workshops that span the year and its seasons. Discover and embody ancient practices that were created to naturally resonate with the energies of the Earth through its annual cycle.

Winter practices do not over exert the body or mind. Now is the time to give yourself permission to allow your body and mind to settle and rest. We move smoothly and meditatively in harmony with the quiet of this season. The steady, slow movements of Qigong at this time are ideal for settling, integrating and nourishing your energy.

Sat (10am to 4.30pm) / Sun (10am to 1pm). Cost £70 for both days / £35 for the Sat Morning session only.

Presented by Jane Launchbury.

For the first time, we will begin teaching the traditional Yang style long form (108), which we started to introduce during our very successful Wu 108 workshop last July. The traditional Yang-style 108 movement bare-hand Taiji routine is what started the modern Taijiquan revolution. This is a chance look at key sequences, movement intent and application.

This 2 day workshop introduces you to the principles of Tai Chi (Taiji) movement and begins the study of the long form; future workshops will be in a one or two day format and held every 4-6 weeks, and the study is likely to take several sessions to complete, depending on student ability. 

Sat/Sun Full Day 10am to 4pm (inc lunch break)

Special weekend price £96. A £16 deposit is required to secure your place.
