Health Qigong Training in Melbourne 2024
Organised by Health Qigong Australia and Tai Chi Australia in conjunction with the Chinese Health Qigong Association and Shanghai Wushu Institute, this year’s Health Qigong Training Courses were held in Melbourne. There were three 2–half day intensive training Courses:
- Beginner’s Training – Ba Duan Jin
- Beginner’s Training – Dao Yin Yangsheng Gong Shi Er Fa
- Instructor’s Training
The courses were conducted by the world’s leading Health Qigong specialists: Dr Peng Xiangji (Beijing Sport University), Master Zhu Hongyan (Shanghai Sport University) and Dr Chao Shengjie (Lishui University).
Qigong is an integral component of the Chinese health system that combines physical movement, mental cultivation and regulated breathing. It is designed to guide and induce the free flow of energy (Qi) throughout the body, maintaining the harmony of Yin and Yang, thereby promoting good health and a greater sense of well-being.
Qigong increases vitality and impacts positively on medical conditions. It can also bring about increased muscular efficiency, coordination and flexibility; improve breathing and blood flow; and stimulate the immune system. Due to all these factors, Qigong will improve and prolong the quality of life.
Qigong is now regarded within the Chinese health and medical science fields as “the shining pearl in Traditional Chinese Medicine”. It has helped millions of people with severe and lingering health problems to improve their health. Over 70 countries have adopted the concepts of Qigong with millions of people currently practising the art.
These Courses offered inspiration and practical knowledge in an Eastern approach to health and well being. By working through different movements that constitute each form, the participants learned the relationship between each movement and Chinese medicine theory. The gentle and flowing movements stimulate vital energy, creating harmony and health for both body and mind.
