My qigong journey began when I returned to Dorset in 1999 after more than a decade in London. My new lifestyle gave me the opportunity to join a local yoga class. During summer workshops, our teacher introduced us to different practices, including qigong. The slow, mindful movements immediately struck a chord. At a time when I rushed through everything, qigong’s subtlety and focus were a revelation. The grace of the teacher and the movements inspired me to want to teach qigong one day. With no qigong classes nearby, I joined a tai chi group to develop related skills. A move to Berkshire in 2013 led me to train as a holistic therapist, studying massage and reflexology. I finally found a local qigong class and realised how deeply it resonated with me. I launched Rooke Holistic Therapies in 2015 and achieved my long-held goal of becoming a qigong teacher in 2019 after a three-year training course. Teaching has become my favourite way to practise, and I always leave classes feeling better. After more than ten years away, I wanted to move back to the West Country and fulfil a lifelong desire to live by the sea. I was drawn to Sidmouth and am glad to be able to share qigong in the beautiful studio at the Ocean Wellness Hub. My class is open to all, whether you are a beginner or more experienced. Do come and give it a go…
