    Welcome to Shibashi Qigong Set One. I was introduced to this set by my Shiatsu instructor Chris Jarmey. It formed an important part of our energy warm up and fitness routine before treatment of clients.

    Simple to learn and practise, you should make time everyday to run through the 18 moves, performing 6 or 12 of each move.

Description

Shibashi set one is a qigong set of 18 moves, simple to learn and perform, but extremely effective for improving health.  The sets were developed by Chinese master Lin Hou Sheng and comprise movements taken from qigong and Yang style tai chi forms.  They each have specific functions to improve qi movement around the meridians, thereby improving health and preventing illness in the same way as acupuncture. 

The course is easy to follow via video and spoken narrative, with slow motion for more difficult aspects of the movement (where appropriate).  The set can be learnt fairly quickly; however, the student must practise regularly to improve the effectiveness of each movement. 

People learn qigong for a variety of reasons; mostly because they already have a condition that they wish to help improve, but in reality, it works as a preventative system of simple exercise that relaxes the body and mind, without the hard work and exhaustion of other exercise programmes. 

For the less able, it can also be performed seated.    Students are advised to seek advice from their GP before taking up any form of new exercise programme. The majority of GPs advise their patients to start practising tai chi (qigong) as it is recognised as a good way to exercise safely.

Who this course is for:

  • This is for anyone wishing to learn a simple qigong set, no experience required
