The 8 Silk Brocades
The 8 Brocades set is practiced by millions of people all over the world. It’s an easy and efficient routine to use daily to help the physical body stay strong, flexible and resilient -- Good for all levels! I will balance this more active 8 Brocades set with a very gentle series of warm up exercises called “coiling silk”. Coiling silk or silk reeling means to slowly turn parts of the body on an axis to dissolve knotted energy, restoring flow and balance.

Keeping it simple this week with an introductory style class. The ancients' observations, honed over centuries, resulted in a highly complex system for maintaining health. But the nice thing about Qigong is you don’t need to understand its depth and complexity to be able to jump right in and begin to experience its benefits. Qigong transforms stress into vitality with 2 main phases - let go, and fill up. Let go of stagnation (tension), and fill up with qi (life force energy)!

Ji Ben Qigong: Classic Foundational Set
“Ji Ben” in Chinese means “basic, foundational or fundamentals”. So “Ji Ben Qigong” can translate as fundamentals for working with life force energy. It is eight flowing exercises meant to be done in sequence, much like the 8 Pieces of the Silk Brocades. The overall goal is of course supporting longevity and maintaining health. More specifically, the forms are designed to help you release layers of tension in the tissue, restructure your form, and sink your Qi through relaxation. Overtime this starts to refashion the body, preparing it for more advanced internal practices.
