qigong classes
Ancient Style: Eight Pieces of Brocade
The Eight Pieces of Brocade consist of eight individual exercises, each of which is designed to stretch and strengthen a specific part of the body and stimulate a particular organ-energy system, while also bringing the whole system into balance. This system of Qigong was designed to strengthen the body, particularly the legs, back, shoulders and neck, to balance the vital functions and tonify the internal organs, to build immunity and resistance and enhance vitality, and to drive stagnant energy and toxin residue from the system. Today it remains one of the most widely practiced styles of Qigong.
