Qigong on the Holy Island

Friday 10th -13th October 2025

Embroidered Lace Qigong.

 

I was introduced to this beautiful Qigong Form many years ago and I consider it to be one of the earliest Forms of my study in Qigong.

Consisting of 8 movements, this Form flows easily from one movement to another, and takes around 10 minutes out of your daily activities to practice to leave you energised and relaxed.

This Form is suitable for beginners and advanced practitioners alike.
