Taiji and Qigong

Contact: taiji.and.qigong@eastlothianu3a.org.uk

Note:

This is an intermediate / advanced group, not suitable for beginners.  There are several groups in East Lothian and Edinburgh that take beginners to allow progression to intermediate level.  For information about these groups please contact the group leader using the email address above.

U3A members and non-members are welcome to visit us for three sessions to see if this is a suitable group for them.

The group practices the Yang forms both Short and Long, various Qigong sets, and we have also now nearly completed the Wu style 30 step Short form.

Although we don’t take beginners, we welcome anyone who has learnt the Yang or Wu short forms, or all or part of, the Yang or Wu long forms. Anyone who has practiced another style for several years and is happy to learn Yang and Wu forms would also be a welcome member of the group.

Familiarity with the “Eight Pieces of Brocade”, (BA Duan Jin) or the “Muscle Tendon Changing Exercises”, (Yi Jin Jing), or the Wudang “Five Animals” Qigong sets would be helpful but not necessary.

When:

Meets every Thursday, 10.15 am till 11.45 am.

Where:

Alistair Grant Hall, Bridge Centre, Haddington.
