Slow your body Slow your breath Slow your mind When we slow down we give ourselves the opportunity to rejuvenate, to recharge and to harness our own life force energy or “Qi”. As we move towards winter we begin to turn inwards and connect to the power of Yin, the power of Water and the power of finding our own slow flow. In this 6 week course we will explore Qigong movements, meditations and breathwork practices to support this slowing down, giving us the space to connect to our Qi, to our subtle energy, giving us the tools to feel stronger, calmer and full of vitality. In Traditional Chinese Medicine we are entering the water phase of winter. The water element relates to the organs of the bladder and kidneys, our bones, our ears and our sense of hearing. The meridians of Kidney and Bladder run along our spine and the back of the body and when they are flowing well we feel supported by life, grounded and connected to the world around us. We can find our inner flow with ease, without effort or strain, enabling us to let go of our fears and move forward with courage. Qigong teaches us to come back to our bodies, to come back home, to a place of belonging that is inside all of us, a place of stillness in our the centre. Where we can better navigate life’s uncertainties with greater balance, ease, and steadiness. What is included: Six live 60min evening Qigong Classes on zoom Six live 30min morning Slow Flow classes on zoom Access to replays of all classes so you can catch up in your own time.

Testimonial "Personal online Tai Chi lessons with Alex Swainson are improving my mobility, my posture and my thinking.  I've been having the lessons each week for nearly a year.  In spite of me having learnt Tai Chi about 20 years ago, Alex has reintroduced me to the underlying principles and practice.  He is a thoughtful teacher, sharing the knowledge from his personal research into the movement and balance of the human body and mind.  He puts a strong emphasis on using the natural force of gravity to move in the easiest, most effective and most powerful way. I find it combats the mobility problems associated with ageing.  His teaching is supportive and informative, feeding back on the way I move as I go through the Tai Chi form, picking up on the problems that he sees and working on how to overcome them. He is a mine of information on the way the human body works in terms of its posture, spine positions and movements, the movement of joints and the working of the nervous system.   Through the 1 to 1 online relationship, Alex demonstrates the application of the principles he has learnt and developed, both in demonstrating the Tai Chi form but also in the movements that are necessary not just for good Tai Chi, but for use and application in our everyday lives.   Alex makes a recording of each lesson which he sends to me to help with my practice during the time between lessons.   Learning online can sometimes be more difficult in explaining movements or postures compared to face to face learning, where the teacher can make physical interventions to show what's needed.  However, the recordings are invaluable for seeing things again, watching myself in action, picking up things that Alex has said that I'd missed the significance of in the session itself.   Watching myself performing the Tai Chi form is often a revelation of the difference between what I think I'm doing and what I'm actually doing! I am getting a great deal out of the learning sessions.  I have met a number of Tai Chi teachers and in my experience Alex is as principled, thoughtful and capable as a teacher as any that I have met.  And I have worked with some good ones.  The lessons are challenging, no doubt about it.  But Alex takes care to work at my pace and is very clear that the learning I do for myself is the key to the development of my understanding and the improvement of my practice.  Being able to move well in older age is a thing to treasure and nurture and in this Alex is helping me enjoy my later life." Offer Description Learn Tai Chi at your own pace with expert guidance. Alex is a highly experienced teacher with deep knowledge of the art, making him ideally suited to one-to-one teaching.
