What are the aspects of Qigong/ Chinese Yoga?
Kai Men
Kai Men means “open door”.
Kai Men Keep the body moving continually while keeping joints as open as possible to alleviate stress and tension.
Each baseline exercise consists of a movement flow performed with consciously synchronised breathing to balance both body and nervous system.
Each Kai Men has up to 5 extensions, where the body is encouraged to soften and open further than in the baseline exercise.
Kai Men focus on muscle coordination, balance and strength.
Kai Men are scientifically proven to have measurable benefits for physical and mental health - i.e. hearth health, increased focus, decreased stress.
Tao Yin
Tao Yin means “secret island”.
Tao Yin is a group of therapeutic breathing exercises designed to work on specific areas of the body (unlike Kai Men).
Tao Yin are designed to create and maintain harmony in the organs of the body (less so for muscles and joints).
Depending on the exercise, they can stimulate or sedate organ function.
Tao Yin are a wonderful mindfulness tool, to help increase perception and intuition.
A tranquil mind is a beautiful effect of Tao Yin.
All Tao Yin have names (like “happy days”) and do not have extensions.
