This class is an introduction to qigong and simple stretching patterns. Movements will be taught both as physical and energetic exercises and as methods for improving present moment awareness and mindfulness of subtle perceptions. No special clothing or experience is required, come as you are, and be ready to move about comfortably in your home space. We will be meeting over Zoom, and the class will include social time with other class members. A signed liability waiver will be required prior to the first class. The instructor will offer supporting resources of a suggested DVD available for purchase, free videos to view on YouTube, and ongoing virtual classes between Osher terms.
