Dragon & Tiger Qigong
Seven Simple Movements that Transform Health and Vitality
Course Description
This comprehensive course provides a step-by-step guide to each of the 7 movements of Dragon and Tiger Medical Qigong. Across a series of progressive lessons, you'll learn each of the seven movements individually before bringing them together into a complete flowing practice.
Dragon and Tiger combines gentle movement, relaxed breathing and focused awareness to release unnecessary tension, improve whole-body coordination and encourage the free circulation of qi throughout the body.
As your practice develops, you'll discover how seemingly simple movements can produce profound changes in physical ease, energy, emotional balance and mental clarity.
The course is designed to support both beginner and intermediate practitioners. Beginners will learn the complete seven-movement form, developing good body mechanics, coordination and an introduction to the accurate tracing of the body's energetic pathways.
Intermediate students will refine the form in order to create greater precision with their channel tracing, as well as developing their qi sensitivity to work more directly with, and positively impact, the body's etheric field.
Simple to learn. Deep enough to last a lifetime.
Dragon & Tiger consists of just seven movements, making it one of the most accessible Qi Gong practices to learn and practise regularly. But beneath its apparent simplicity lies a sophisticated system for developing relaxation, whole-body coordination, awareness and vitality.
You don't need to be experienced in Qi Gong to begin. The movements can be explored at your own level, while the practice has enough depth to continue developing with you over months and years.
