Qigong Classes - Winter/Spring 2025
2025-02-18 10:00 - 11:00 | Unitarian Universalist Church of Greater Lynn, 101 Forest Ave, Swampscott, MA, 01907, United States
Would you like to engage in a practice of joy, calm, and empowerment? Support your health and well-being by joining our Qigong classes on Tuesday mornings!
Classes will be held on Tuesdays, 10am-11am.
​Teacher-guided breathing exercises to optimize “Qi” circulation to regulate our mind and body’s movement and posture – providing a sense of joy and calm. Qigong is an old, developing discipline that combines breathing exercises, movement, self-massage, gong meditation, and healing postures to provide a comprehensive approach to self-healing exercise and meditation.
Is this for you? Whether you are new to Qigong, or have previous experience, you will enjoy this one-hour meditative exercise that will include qigong theory and philosophy, self-massage, Daoyin, Five-Animal Frolics, 8 Silk Brocade, 18 Forms, Six Healing Sounds, and gong meditation.
Some of the benefits of Qigong:
-promotes relaxation and good health
-improves balance and flexibility
-relieves stress and fatigue
-strengthens body and mind
What’s the difference between Qigong and Tai Chi? Both Tai Chi and Qigong are great forms of health and healing, but:
-Qigong is easy to learn, and it can be practiced at home regularly, while Tai Chi requires memorization of movements in sequence
-There are infinite numbers of Qigong styles that suit everyone’s level, while Tai Chi movements can be longer and more challenging
-Qigong exercises can be practiced while sitting, standing, or lying down, while Tai Chi is a continuous and moving meditation
Register HERE for Qigong unless you have taken a class with Rosie at UUCGL before.
Please try out the first class for free, and if you choose to continue you may pay at the next class. There is an advance fee of $10 per class for a series of 12 classes ($120) as a commitment to the series and a way to show that you value the teacher and the teachings. Partial and full financial waivers are available by request.
