SPRING-A TIME OF RENEWAL FOR THE EARTH AND YOU!

WHAT IS QI GONG?

MY QIGONG CLASSES ARE BASED ON THE FIVE ELEMENT PRACTICE WITH FOCUS ON THE FIVE ELEMENTS-METAL, WATER, WOOD, FIRE AND EARTH AND THE ORGANS THAT CORRESPOND WITH EACH-LUNGS, KIDNEY, LIVER, HEART AND SPLEEN.

QIGONG IS AN ANCIENT CHINESE PRACTICE (SIMILAR TO TAI CHI, BUT MORE FOCUS ON ENERGY CULTIVATION VERSUS TECHNIQUE). EACH CLASS STARTS WITH THE BREATH AND CONNECTING WITH THE PRESENT MOMENT, STRETCHING, WARM-UPS, “FLOWS”, BALANCE, MEDITATION AND RELAXATION TECHNIQUES.

NO EQUIPMENT IS NEEDED, PARTICIPANTS SHOULD DRESS COMFORTABLY AND BE PREPARED TO ENHANCE THEIR BODY, MIND, AND SPIRITUAL CONNECTION.

EDUCATION/EXPERIENCE

TIER 2 LEE HOLDEN CERTIFIED TEACHER

Master’s in Health

Bachelors of Science in Physical Education

My teaching career continues with my a recent trip to Santa Cruz and obtaining my Tier 2 certification with Qi Gong Master, Lee Holden. This has been an amazing journey as I continue to learn not only from Lee Holden, but also John Platt, Nick Loffree, Mimi Kuo-Reemer, John Kirwood and Jenny Bertramlac. Due to these knowledgeable and caring Masters, I have been able to teach my classes with joy and confidence. Watching my students learn to activate and feel the qi/energy and enhance their own and beautiful spirit-mind-body connection has be rewarding to witness.

❄️WINTER TIME IS A TIME TO REFLECT, REST AND RESTORE.❄️

The video below shows the movement called The Fountain and it helps to strengthen the kidneys-which are associated with the Water Element. Allow yourself this opportunity as the dark days of the year are upon us.

In the Five Element practice this relaxing movement brings in peace and tranquility, and releases fearful and insecure feelings.
