5 Animal Qigong | 6 Month Live Series
Learn the most ancient of all known Qigong forms: The Five Animal Frolic. Embody the power and mystery of these 5 animals to heal and strengthen the body, exercise the mind, and nourish the soul.
The Oldest Known Qigong Form
Created by Chinese medical doctor Hua To around 150 AD, this form is meant to exercise the body, remove stagnant Qi, strengthen the legs, open the joints, improve balance and coordination, build the kidney Qi, calm the heart Qi, smooth the liver Qi, invigorate the lung/immune Qi, and nourish the stomach Qi. It can be used as a form of 5 Element Qigong, or as a seasonal practice to harmonize with the environment. You will also learn some 5 Element Standing and Moving meditations to accompany these 5 animal forms.

When are the Live classes?
Classes are on the first Sunday of every month for 6 months, starting April 2, 2023. They are held at Noon LA, 3pm NY, 8pm UK, and will last 2 - 3 hours.

What if can't make the Live classes?

-
How challenging is this form?
This form is a bit more challenging than most Qigong you may have tried. It takes a little longer to learn, because there is footwork involved in many of the exercises, similar to Tai Chi. Nick provides variations to make many of the movements more accessible for people with mobility issues.
