The Seminar

Four days of seminar teaching

Our concept
We practice Qigong in the midst of pristine nature on natural practice platforms and show you the attractions and insider tips in the national park.

In the morning
we practice Qigong in silence.

After breakfast
we drive to our different natural exercises platforms in the shade of old plane trees or oak, by the river, in the mountains or in the vicinity of old monasteries.
Here you will also learn background knowledge that is rarely taught in Qigong courses,
but which is so important for gaining access to the ancient knowledge of healing and transformation.

We will visit various places of power, connect with their energy and return to the facility in the afternoon, filled with inner beauty.

08:00 – 8:45 am:
Qigong exercises

Location

Power and Connectedness

There are not many places left where you can still feel the Qi sources so intensely.
And the more we deepen our exercises here, the more we come back to our original power, feel strong and grounded, regain confidence in the flow of life, with everything that belongs to it.
It is my pleasure to introduce you to this place of magnificent natural beauty, and to introduce you to the ancient knowledge of Qigong!
