Come explore the mystery of realizing a healthy body and mind and developing internal power through the gentle practice of Qin Quan!
This one-day Taichi workshop gives you the opportunity to learn how to unleash your natural innate power and bring a healthy balance to your energy system. The restrictions and tension in our neck, shoulder and back limit our range of motion and impede our natural energy flow. The internal martial art Qin Quan, a unique Taichi or Martial Qigong system, offers simple and gentle exercises designed to free your body’s limitations and develop your inner balance as well as natural martial abilities. This can be a great refinement and practice opportunity for those who have taken an introductory Qin Quan workshop before.

             This is an hour and 30 minute long weekly class for training Qin Quan Part A in its completion.  Qin Quan Part A includes moves for loosening and strengthening your wrists, elbows, shoulders, back and legs, improving your body alignment and structure as well as training your ability of adhering to your opponent, unity force and sinking force in martial application.  This training enhances your endurance, flexibility, balance and strength and helps to correct your structure imbalance.  All exercises can be done gently including the exercises in contact.

          The class format is mainly self practice with instruction, guidance, attunement and correction of moves when needed.  No wearing watches or long nails for this class.  Loose clothing and exercise shoes are recommended.  
            This class focuses on the health benefit of Qin Quan and the paired contact exercises are done gently and for fun. Students interested in participating in active fighting practice are required to do a special waiver.
The last four exercises in Qin Quan A are paired contact exercises that have special value in testing your individual exercises and in further training your reaction, flexibility, endurance and sensitivity in adhering to your opponent. You can choose not to practice them but focus on individual exercises if you need to.
          This is your special opportunity for receiving Qin Quan A full training.
