Qi Dance

 Qi Dance - Part III of BWBH’s Qigong for WellBeing series                                                                           

All of us know how to intelligently move our bodies even without the memory of when we were in our mothers' womb. We wiggled our body to communicate with our mothers, and learned how to understand her thoughts and emotions through sensing her movements. This class offers an insightful way to bring us back to that deep knowing by listening, moving our bodies with awareness and trust. As we connect body, mind, and spirit through Qi dances, we find our authentic body language and connect to our body's natural landscape with what Chinese called Zi Ran (natural and spontaneous movement). Led by Lorelei Chang, international Qigong and dance instructor/performer.
