Introduction:

A Unique Opportunity for Health

Ba Duan Jin Qi Gong is the most popular form of Qi Gong in the world for a reason. Known as the "Eight-Part Treasure," this ancient sequence is a powerful key to rejuvenating your body, calming your mind, and strengthening your spirit.

On Sunday, October 12th, we are hosting a special Ba Duan Jin Qigong workshop at the Historic Hillcrest Centre in Newhaven. This is your chance to take an immersive look into this profound practice directly from an expert in a supportive, in-person setting.

What is Shaolin Ba Duan Jin?

Ba Duan Jin originates from the ancient Shaolin manuscripts of Yi Jin Jing (Muscle-Tendon Change Classic) and Xi Sui Jing (Marrow-Cleansing Classic). It consists of eight simple yet profoundly effective movements designed to work with the body's energy, or Qi.

Translated as the "Eight Pieces of Brocade," each movement is like weaving a precious silk thread into a tapestry of vibrant health, targeting your internal organs, strengthening your immune system, and promoting longevity.
