Water Element Qigong

Join Gentle Mothh for an in-person qigong class in collaboration with Woodstock Land Conservancy, centered on the Water element. Rooted in 5 Element Theory, this practice explores water as a source of transformation and wisdom.
Held outdoors, the class offers gentle movement and breath-led practice designed to support nervous system regulation. Participants are invited to move with the qualities of water, cultivating softness, strength, and continuity through practice.
No prior qigong experience required. This class welcomes those seeking a grounded practice for cultivating harmony with self and environment.45 minute Practice, 5 minutes for arrivals, 15 minutes for post practice integration and connection. No equipment needed, but if you would like something to stand on, feel free to bring a mat or blanket

Rooted in 5 Element Theory and embodied practice, her work centres qigong as a pathway to nervous system regulation, creative resilience, and collective care. Through art, teaching, and community-building, Mothh explores how embodied regulation supports sustainable movements, meaningful creative work, and ethical leadership. She brings a sustained focus to honoring and amplifying the lived experiences of sex workers, approaching advocacy through relational and body-based frameworks. She is the author of Giving Body (Eureka! Press, 2025) and teaches qigong classes that support people navigating marginalisation and creative work. A former sex worker, Mothh brings an integrated, embodied lens to her work across art, advocacy, and organisational leadership.
