DAY 1​​

During the first day of this module you will learn how to complete a body alignment assessment and explore the issues poor body alignment can create or aggravate . You will also learn how to make safe suggestions for your session attendees to help them to improve their alignment and potentially ease some of their discomfort​

We will complete body alignment assessments each other while standing, sitting and moving and also consider how we use our body in everyday life and while delivering Qigong, as we have to look after ourselves first before we can help our attendees

​

We are rarely taught how to stand and move correctly ​​

Standing and moving with the right foot incorrectly can create discomfort in the left shoulder and neck​. 

Big toes bending inwards creating bunions,

​'Knock knees', 'Bow Legs' or collapsed foot arches are most often a consequence of poor posture and can be improved​​. 

​

We can help ourselves in many ways, once we know how, and as therapists, we can also help our attendees.

Session Leaders who are also holistic therapists will be able to use the information learned during this module to help their clients​​

​

​

​DAY 2​

During the second day of this module we will explore how the whole body moves as one with a strong relaxed ease. 

We will apply the body alignment knowledge and see how this is efficient and effective.

​

The movements all start in the feet and travel through the lower tantien.

The arms are moved by the body and all we need to do is apply spirals and arcs 

​

These techniques are applied to all tai chi qigong movements to ease the joints, strengthen the muscles, create flexibility, massage our internal organs and encourage our body systems to work more efficiently
