A Calm and Energising Start to the Week with Baduanjin Qigong
This week we welcomed participants to our new Baduanjin Qigong class, led by the highly experienced Sensei Zhang. The class introduced this gentle yet powerful traditional Chinese exercise, known for its flowing movements and deep breathing techniques.
Participants of all ages joined in to learn the “Eight Pieces of Brocade” — a sequence of graceful movements designed to activate the joints, stretch the muscles, and support both physical and mental wellbeing. Sensei Zhang guided the group through each posture with patience and clarity, helping everyone feel confident and supported as they moved.
It was a peaceful and uplifting way to start the day, and we’re excited to see this group continue to grow!
Classes are free and ongoing every Monday and Wednesday morning. For more information, contact Lucy at lucy@epsom-community-centre.org.nz
If you’re looking for a low-impact way to improve flexibility, balance, and energy — this could be just what you need.
Come along and give it a try — no experience needed, and all are welcome!
