The first part of this evening is going to be more presentation style until we have established a baseline to talk about. In the second half it will turn more into an answering of specific questions and also some practical explorations for you to feel into some simple specifc movement patterns that Qigong offers. You could say, some experiences around fundamental principles which can be found in many Qigong systems.

If you are a seasoned practitioner, completely new to Qigong or even come from a different discipline like Yoga or martial arts it will be my please to welcome you there for about 3,5 hours to explore this fascinating topic.
