More About
This Shaolin Ba Duan Jin course is centred on the traditional Shaolin Ba Duan Jin Qi Gong, an ancient practice that blends the art of breathing control with both internal (Qi) energy cultivation and external movement.

The course focuses on strengthening both your internal vitality and external physical resilience, allowing for enhanced flexibility, strength, and vitality.
In addition to the physical movements, we place a strong emphasis on relaxation and rejuvenation, ensuring that you not only build strength but also experience mental clarity and emotional balance. The integration of relaxation techniques helps you unwind, reduce stress, and cultivate a deep sense of calm, supporting your overall wellbeing.
