A big THANK YOU to everyone that attended on a warm, dry Sunday morning.

Lao Tzu - The Art of not Trying
Qigong (pronounced "chee gong") is an ancient Chinese healing art and self-cultivation system. This includes simple, gentle movement, posture, breathing techniques, self-massage and meditation.
These practices can improve and maintain health: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. We bring in fresh "Qi" (life energy) to nourish and energise the body. At the same time the mind is calmed, bringing a welcome balance to our lives.
