Malvern:
Beginners class.
Summer term SPECIAL!!!
The 18 stance Tai Chi-Qigong form (also called Shibashi) combines the strengths of Tai Chi and Qigong. It covers all the major muscles in the body and all the meridians too.It helps to move Qi or life-force faster than most Tai Chi forms, (until the student has attained quite an advanced state of practice) because each movement is repeated several times. Developing or increasing your levels of Qi or Life-force, ensures improvement in your health and wellbeing. These 18 exercises will be taught this term, and is only taught once a year.
There is a money-back guarantee, if there is no improvement in your health by the end of the term, having practised what you've been taught!
Date: Tuesdays, 7.30pm.
Venue: Northleigh School, St. Peters Rd, Malvern, ....WR14 1QS.

It is usually only taught once a year, in the autumn term to beginners. This is an internal teaching, rarely taught publicly anywhere in the world! I am privilaged to have studied with Master Wee Kee Jin, who teaches in this way, so I am honoured to pass it on to my students.

A Master Class with Carlos Garcia (Argentina):
From Tenderness to the Erotic. Deepening our understanding and exploring the lines of Affectivity and Sexuality.
There was a buzz of excitement at Carlos's first visit to England in October 2009. His deep insights and different interpretations into various Biodanza exercises was an amazing revelation to all those attending. For those who don't know, Carlos was amongst the first group of students to do the Biodanza teacher training some 30 years ago. His insights are also coloured by being a Proffessor of Psychology. This weekend is open to those with at least 50 hours of Biodanza experience. It is sure to be a sell out, as space is limited, so book early!
