Qigong is a system of knowledge that comprises at least 5,000 years of human evolution and covers all the fields of human interest.
It is officially known in China as the science of human potential and development.
There are many styles of Qigong available so it is important to understand what makes our style unique.
White Tiger Qigong are Taoist Qigong exercises that harmonize the body, breath and mind.
White Tiger specializes in dynamic Qigong exercises known well in Wuyi Mountain and Wudang Mountain but has very little exposure in the West and then it is fused with cutting-edge science, particularly neuroscience and sports science.
Yes, this Qigong is designed for anyone at any level of fitness. It is gentle and flowing.
The breathing practices we introduce you to here are designed to improve breathing efficiency, to release stagnation from the body, and to learn to relax deeply. Additionally, discovering how to guide your movement with your breath is a huge component of what makes Qigong ‘Qigong’, and this helps to regulate the nervous system. This results in reducing the stress response and enhancing the relaxation response, so you will feel more relaxed, more emotionally balanced and freer in your body, as well as feeling a reduction in body aches and pains.
Meridians are channels that run throughout the whole body. Look at it as like roads inside our bodies – like a superhighway that interconnects roads and pathways both big and small. Therefore when the “Meridian road” is open and there are no blockages around, then Qi (energy) can flow swiftly through. In Chinese terms, the Meridians are called Jingluo (經 絡, jing-low), which means “channels”. The 2nd character, 絡, means “net-like”. So Meridians are “net-like” channels where Qi flows. The Meridian Qigong exercises are highly recommended to practice prior to the other movements. Each Meridian form has its own purpose and benefits. Meridian Qigong is a very good way to start your Qigong practice as warming up the body properly is critical, whether you are a beginner or an advanced qigong practitioner.
These movements have been expertly selected from the White Tiger Qigong Trinity System of core practices – 8 Trigram Organ Qigong, 5 Element Qigong and 5 Animal Qigong – for their ability to nourish and support your wellbeing. We’ll also use some Qigong meditation techniques.
8 Trigram Qigong works on principles of continuous flowing breath and movement. The movements are soft and gentle, so that anyone at any level can jump in and do them. The movements give a gentle massage to the internal organs. The forms are done in a horse stance while focusing on rhythmic, coiling, dragon-like, undulating flows, which give a gentle massage to the internal organs. This is the most gentle, yet internal of all the 3 Qigong systems. In this course we practise Throwing Away the Trash, The Wave and Dragon Whips Its Tail. It is really good for people with back and neck pain or back and shoulder mobility issues.
5 Element Qigong is a staccato Qigong done in place with 5 different stances that are related to the 5 Elements. Each Qigong form focuses on one of the 5 specific organ systems and those related Meridians through 5 different animal movements that relate to the element. In this course we practise Tiger. Tiger is with the Metal Element and is precise and linear, working on the lung system. It is really good for stretching and strengthening at the same time, and improving lung health.
5 Animal Qigong is from Hua Tuo who was the creator of Medical Qigong. It is the oldest known and first Medical Qigong system ever created. It is based on 5 different animal movements that work on the meridians, organs and bones. It was designed so that you move the way the element does to benefit that organ system. It has 5 different animals and each animal has 4 different forms laid out in seasons. Thus, there are 20 forms in total. It is the most dynamic of the 3 Qigong systems and has the most variety of movements. In this course we practise Crane Flaps Its Wings. It is a beautiful expansive, upward rising form and gives a gentle balance challenge.
