Chi Kung (qigong) is the ancient Chinese art and science of using posture, exercise, breathing, and concentration to gather and promote the strong flow of Chi, or energy, ultimately healing the body and the mind.  Chi Kung is the foundation of traditional Chinese medicine and is both a preventative and a self-healing technique.  It is practiced by more than 80 million people in China and is gaining in popularity in the west.  Students learn to open and control the flow of Chi so that it spreads evenly through the body, eliminating any blockages and, thus, filling any areas of the body that are depleted and draining any areas that are congested.  The combination of meditative techniques and dynamic exercises improve posture, circulation, strength, stamina, flexibility, and concentration.  These exercises are the most basic and can be practiced both standing and sitting and are suitable for anyone.

This will be a practical workshop on exploring how the practice and principles of tai chi can influence our health and longevity.  From the postural alignment to which meridians are activated in specific postures to how these principles can be applied to our daily life.  "Tai Chi is a moving meditation that sets into motion the Microcosmic orbit that vertically permeates the torso, and the macrocosmic orbit, a circuit through all four limbs.  The internal energy traveling through these circuits naturally flows into connecting meridians, and masses potential energy into a tidal wave of force.  As a healing element, this flow Of energy increases circulation, calm3 the mind, relaxes the muscles and heals nervous, organ and skeletal problems."
