Dance of the Dragon: Myofascial Qigong for Yogis and other Athletes
Details
The focus of this workshop is on creating flexibility, mobility and strength,using slow flowing movements to circulate the body’s energy (qi). It will unlock stiff joints, muscles and disentangle fascial fibers, as well as reduce the amount of tension you hold from bad postural habits and stress. This is particularly effective for yogis and athletes who find that they are still holding stiffness in their bodies. The movement works deeply into the shoulders, hips and other areas that tend to get stuck,relieving pain and improving mobility. As a result, yogis will feel a difference in standing postures, with a new awareness of hips, shoulders and intercostal muscles.
Qigong recognizes stiffness and immobility as energetic (qi) stagnation where emotional and physical energy has become blocked. So when you allow qi to flow freely again, this can have deeply healing effects for the organs and body as a whole and for your emotional well-being.
Dance of the Dragon Qigong connects your energy to the infinite energy of the Universe, allowing you to create more energy with less effort.
