In addition to our Bury Tai Chi classes, the British Chen Style Tai Chi College also teaches Qigong in Bury. Wild Goose Qigong is a little known style and we are pleased to offer this style of Qigong in Bury. The Wild Goose Qigong that we practise is purely to maintain health by moving the body through a dance-like sequence of movements. This ancient Daoist system can promote health by opening the acu-points and "dredging the channels".
We have a regular Sunday class in Bury and also teach some aspects of Wild Goose Qigong in some of our Tai chi classes. However to learn Wild Goose Qigong you do not need to be a Tai Chi practitioner.
See our Wild Goose page for more details.
