Da Yan Wild Goose Qigong 27 Movement Rainy Day Practise

The understanding of Qi and the development of Qi cultivation practices, or what we call ‘Qigong’ has a long and proud history. This body of knowledge has grown since ancient times, from the indigenous people of China and their Daoist tradition. It has evolved to become an art and science, generating the foundation of what is recognised as the Chinese healing arts of Acupuncture, Acupressure Massage, Chinese Herbal Medicine, Feng Shui, Qigong and Taijiquan.Da Yan translates to ‘great bird’ and is an ancient cultivation practice originating from the Jin Dynasty about 1700 years ago.
