For those not familiar with Qi Gong, here is a brief description of this wonderful practice:

Qi Gong (pronounced chee gong or gung) is an ancient Chinese practice that includes slow circular movements, regulated breathing, and meditation.  It is easy to learn and can be done standing, sitting, or lying down, so is suitable for everyone regardless of age or physical condition.

Qi Gong increases the body’s flow of its own energy (qi), helping to improve circulation, relieve stress and pain, and restore health. 

No equipment is needed.  Wear comfortable clothing and socks if you don’t want to be barefoot.

Our practice is free and open to all faculty, staff and students! Join us!
