Jade Body Qigong - April 12/13, 2008 - Seattle - REGISTRATION CLOSED WORKSHOP ATTENDANCE FULL
According to Chinese Medicine hundreds of illnesses come from damage to the spine. Jade Body Qigong is a simple yet powerful method of healing many spinal problems through imitating the movements and breathing patterns of the turtle, (undulation of the cervical vertebrae), the crane (undulation of the dorsal vertebrae) and the dragon, (rotation of the lumbar vertebrae). While primarily aimed at suffering related to the spinal column, these exercises also have beneficial effects on the regulation of problems with the endocrine system.

The physiology of women is different from that of men and this Qigong form focuses on nourishing the woman’s body. This Qigong form provides great benefit to all women regardless of age or reproductive history, and is especially effective with cases of infertility, diseases related to the female reproductive organs or gynecological system, as well as supporting pregnancy and childbirth.
Hu Lu Gong - September 20/21, 2008 - Seattle - WAIT LIST - REGISTRATION CLOSED WORKSHOP ATTENDANCE FULL
The oldest Taoist name for qigong is “conserve the Qi in a bottle.” In ancient China, dried gourds were used as containers for hot water, tea, or hot wine during the winter. Because they retained the taste and temperature of what they held, gourds were also used in Chinese medicine to hold herbs. This vegetable became a metaphor for the body since the gourd’s form and function are similar to the form and function of the human body as it practices qigong. Practicing Squash Qigong increases and maintains your body’s energy, recharges your vitality, and protects you from the cold damp winter wind that causes us to catch cold easily.
Dragon Tiger Qigong - October 11/12, 2008 - Portland
