In every Waking Up Energy class, I share these powerful lessons with you. Together we wake up our resilience with easy, repetitive, gentle movements. Welcome a clearer mind, a stronger body, and a calmer heart using simple Qigong forms as a foundational self-care tool every day.
Repetitious flowing movements can benefit everyone at any age. It’s not magic. We use ancient teachings for our weekday practices that we do again and again daily with others in a global online Qigong class. Live, Monday through Friday.
