What is Qigong?
What makes Qigong work? On a practical level, it's similar to but easier than Tai Chi. These simple energy exercises focus on balancing the body for emotional and physical health. Many evidence based research studies show that Qigong can address mood disorders, alleviate stress, anxiety, and depression, physical symptoms, and chronic illnesses.
We offer wellness classes incorporating Qigong exercises and eastern diet for:
Weight Loss
Stress Relief
Women's Health & Fertility
Anxiety & Depression

People report feeling profoundly relaxed, destressed, and very calm after just one session; participants are pleasantly surprised at the tangible physical and emotional changes after practicing Qigong on their own for several weeks.
