This class meets every Monday from 5:30 to 6:45 p.m. and is open to anyone wishing to develop a Qigong practice. We'll explore this wonderful aspect of Chinese medicine as a path to increased vitality, health and longevity, as well as spiritual growth. Qigong is an ancient practice which combines graceful movements with abdominal breathing and mindfulness, allowing us to connect with Nature and balance the body's circadian rhythms. Benefits of Qigong include a strengthened immune system, greater balance and flexibility, and emotional balance; often after doing Qigong one will want to smile spontaneously! This class will focus on a set of Qigong called the Eight Brocades, one of the most widely practiced and beneficial forms of Qigong.

Jonah has been studying Chinese internal martial arts and Qigong with Shifu Glen Moore since 2011. He has a deep interest in Taoist philosophy and Chinese medicine and aspires to share these forms of healing with contemporary seekers of all backgrounds.
