Shibashi Qigong with Sarah

We'll practise the Shibashi Qigong movements. A form of medical Qigong, it is a set of 18 breathing movements which are based on some of the best movements from the Yang Style Tai Chi Chuan. It places emphasis on sychronising the movements with proper breathing techniques. It is a gentle, beautiful and flowing Qigong exercise routine that is both a joy to do and deeply relaxing.

Shibashi is Mandarin for the number 18 as this the number of moves in this form.

About me
When I started training to be a Shiatsu Practitioner in 2001, learning Qigong​ was part of developing my own vitality and self awareness needed to be a therapist. Since then I've practised different forms of Tai Chi Chuan and Tai Chi Qigong.

All styles of Tai Chi and Qigong are related in that they're all based on Traditional Chinese Medicine to heal and develop our body's Ki and vitality. Within the family of individual styles I chose to become a Shibashi Tai Chi Qigong instructor because as a form of medical Qigong it supports students in their own self healing.

Often Shiatsu clients also benefit from learning Shibashi Qigong as part of their own healing journey. Practising Qigong regularly helps build up their Ki and health between Shiatsu treatments, with a goal of no longer needing regular Shiatsu treatments. My role as both practitioner and instructor is to empower students to improve and maintain their own health, and as importantly, enjoy their personal Qigong journey.
