Tai Chi Qigong is an ancient Chinese holistic practice of slow, low impact movements that incorporate posture, breathing and focus to cultivate a smooth energy flow through the body.
It calms the mind, improves wellbeing and fitness. I think of it as a gentle moving meditation
As it is low impact it is suitable for all ages and abilities. It can also be effective if done in a seated position just gently moving the arms.
I deliver 18 beautiful movements to relaxing music with the aim to help you enjoy the session, have some time for yourself to calm the mind and allow the body to recharge and promote an overall sense of wellbeing.

"It has been an absolute pleasure to attend the Qi-gong sessions hosted by Caroline over the last few weeks.
When arriving for the first time I was met by this kind and wonderful lady who made me feel immediately relaxed and part of the group. The way she spoke and demonstrated the movements was so relaxing and even though I had done nothing like this before I was soon transcended to a calm and tranquil place where I could be grounded and feel the energy running through my body. Even afterwards I felt so relaxed and content, thank you, Caroline, I look forward to attending many more of your classes." Darren, Market Harborough
