What is Qi Gong?

Qi Gong is an internal process that has external movements. Qi means ‘life force’, the energy that powers our body and spirit. Gong is the term meaning work or gather. Qi Gong together means a form of movement and mind using intention and mindfulness to guide Qi to make Qi flow and work beneficially.

Qi Gong is often referred to as the ‘internal’ portion of Tai Chi – Its physical expression is characterised by stationary movements that are repeated a certain number of times, such as three, six or nine times.

Practicing the same move over and over stimulates muscle, bone, heart, respiration and other functions in the body as shown through Qi Gong theory.

Tai Chi classes always include the concepts and theories, and usually movements of Qi Gong, but a Qi Gong practice won’t necessarily include Tai Chi.
