Hard and Soft Style Chi Kung
Chi Kung is the art of exercising the body's energy system.
It involves simple exercises performed in a soft relaxed fashion
combined with
meditation. Ideal for relieving stress and tension, it also improves health,
posture and breathing. Chi Kung has few of the complexities of Tai Chi so it
is ideal for beginners.
Chi Kung also forms an integral part of Shaolin Tiger-Crane
Kung Fu training. As a principal, good technique demonstrates
fluid
projection
of internal strength.
During a standard training routine we practice traditional Chi Kung and Shaolin
strengthening exercises to condition the body, including warm-up, stretching
and warm-down techniques. We also use traditional healing methods and medicines,
which prove an effective alternative to Western methods.
The Nam Yang Martial Arts Association also practices Shaolin
Iron Shirt Chi Kung, a closely guarded system producing serious
results.
Potential students are vetted for suitability.
Chi Kung is suitable for adults of all ages, and the elderly
and the unfit especially may benefit greatly from its holistic
approach to maintaining and improving all aspects of human health
through
relaxing, yet energising techniques.
