Workshops
If you and your team want to learn with me, the best way would be to organize a special seminar in France or in your country (cheaper solution for you) ; we will agree about a special price and a special theme.

2021 workshops :
BREATHS AND CONSCIOUS WALKS OF THE FIVE ELEMENTS
ON SUNDAY, JANUARY 31 FROM 9AM TO 12PM
Learn different breathing techniques, each with a specific role: soothing, relieving and purifying, replenishing vitality, stimulating the immune system, oxygenate even more, facilitate sleep. Breathing helps with mental and emotional calm. We will also practice Guolin chi kung with several steps, their breaths and their specific gestures concerning the various organs connected to the elements of nature attached to them (earth, water, fire, air, ether). These walks will also be performed with the bio-mechanics of Full Taiji. This course will be mainly practical and little theory will be given. It will be in the form of hiking on the small paths of the woods. The gestural and respiratory work will not be continuous but with breaks to appreciate the nature. PLACE: Barbechat (44) Participation: 10 € Number of participants: 5 maxi.
