Grand Island Kung Fu will be giving a presentation focusing on the healing art of Qigong. While we also offer classes for Kung Fu for any ages from kids to adults, and Women’s Self-Defense, this presentation will be mainly focused on Qigong.Qigong (pronounced “chee-gong”) is an ancient Chinese practice that combines meditation, controlled breathing, and gentle movement. The term “qigong” is roughly translated as “the master of one’s energy.” It has its origins in traditional Chinese medicine and philosophy.
Here are some key points about qigong:
Purpose: Qigong is used for various purposes, including health, spirituality, and martial arts training.
Qi (Vital Energy): The word “qi” (or “chi”) refers to vital energy or life force. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is believed to circulate through the body.
Gong (Cultivation): “Gong” means cultivation or work. It signifies the practice, skill, mastery, achievement, and service associated with qigong.
People practice qigong for a range of reasons, including recreation, exercise, relaxation, preventive medicine, self-healing, alternative medicine, meditation, and self-cultivation. It is a holistic approach that aims to balance physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.
