NEW QIGONG SESSION STARTS WEDNESDAY, APRIL 17, 2024
As of 2024, Qigong classes are held once a week on Wednesdays, from 6 to 7:30 pm. A new 10-week session will begin on Wednesday, April 17, at 6 pm. This is a simultaneous class, meaning that you may attend in person at our Essex Junction location or connect through Zoom.
This series will use the standing and moving Ba Gua postures and elements from the Turquoise Mountain Tai Chi form as a base from which to actualize the most important principles of Qigong practice. This includes the alignment of vertical/horizontal, exterior/interior, and ultimately mind, body, and breath.
Our last class will be Wednesday, June 19, bringing us up to the summer solstice.
The cost for this series is $185.00. Call (802) 879-7999 or email amakaris@comcast.net to register.
Regarding Frequently Asked Questions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Northern Dipper Style
Our technique is also called Polestar Qigong, a reference to the North Star, Polaris. There is nothing special about the North Star itself, other than that it occupies space over (and close to) the earth's rotational axis and magnetic pole. It appears not to move while the rest of the stars move around it. This is a metaphor for the still point within, as well as a reference point for the earth's magnetic field lines, both of which are significant in qigong practice. Northern Dipper Qigong includes gentle movements that stretch and open the spine. In this class you will learn about essence; breath and mind; and physical and energetic alignment.
