Dragon and Tiger Qigong

Dragon and Tiger Qigong is a 1,500-year-old self-healing movement system based on acupuncture. The seven movements of this Qigong form literally trace the acupuncture lines of your body to move and disperse stagnant chi. The form’s gentle movements are especially beneficial for the joints, increasing range of movement—especially in the upper body. Even when done imperfectly, by people who have limited energy or range of motion, or who are sick or wheelchair bound, this qigong set is immensely beneficial. The movements are easy to learn yet challenging enough to keep Dragon and Tiger Qigong interesting for ongoing practice.
