taoist exercises - mirroring nature

ONLINE MONDAY CHI KUNG - autumn 2024


The weekly lessons consist on a careful craft between still and dynamic exercises. We adjust ourselves to the context present at the moment of practice (such as weather, seasonal changes, phase of life, place, transitions, etc) while maintaining a stable-yet-flexible frame of exercises: the eight still postures (zhan zhuang) and the 'eight pieces of brocade' (ba duan jin).

Apparently unrelated and many times conflicting with each other, we cultivate harmony between opposites: stillness and movement, stability and change, open and close, internal and external. What binds the two together, is play. Or better said, 'chi'.

During our chi kung lessons, you are guided through simple Taoist exercises, with deep effects in your body-energy-mind. I encourage you to integrate what you learn into your daily life - so that to better support your movements, posture and directions out-of-the lesson context.

for who? This course is open to everyone, independent of previous experience with chi kung.
