Who is Qi Gong for?
If you are suffering from chronic conditions, including pain, autoimmune conditions, cancer, or generally want to increase your health and vitality, this class is for you! Qi Gong is an easy daily practice that transforms your relationship with your health, yourself and your life.
Greg's teaching is influenced by 42 years of experience with traditional healing from many cultures. He teaches from these influences with joy and enthusiasm and helps people to bridge the Western mind with the natural rhythms of nature and the body.
