Qi Gong
Ancient techniques of movement and breath
Qi Gong (Life Energy Cultivation) plays a crucial role in Shaolin Kung Fu. Its purpose is to build inner strength that aids the physical body's functions. It is considered an internal martial art that expresses the power of the mind. As a result, students are urged to engage in Qi Gong-internal training to improve their physical Kung Fu training.
Qi Gong includes synchronized body postures and movements, breathing techniques, and meditation for health, spirituality, and martial arts practice. With origins in Chinese medicine, philosophy, and martial arts, it is traditionally seen as a method to cultivate and balance qi.
Typically, Qigong practice features moving meditation with slow, flowing movements, deep rhythmic breathing, and a tranquil meditative state of mind.
