Description: The martial arts have a history of using fighting animals for inspiration. Qigong is also inspired by animals, but for health. The cool thing is that qigong principles improve both our health and martial skills – a great example of yin and yang. In this workshop, we will practice two movements for each of the animals in 5 Animal Qigong as taught by Master Su Zifang during her 2019 Olympia workshop. Allow the spirit of each animal inhabit us as we stretch our muscles and fascia, massage our internal organs, gain strength through stabilization, and prevent/find relief from aches and pains while improving our martial arts movements through qigong principles.
