Course Description

This weekly course is a combination of traditional Yoga Therapy and Qigong practices, designed for individuals seeking to restore balance in their body, mind, and energy. The exercises are arranged to be accessible for all physical conditions and age groups.

Course Structure

Each session consists of four main parts:

Body Awareness and Warm-up (10 minutes)
Gentle movements to activate joints and tissues, increase body awareness, and regulate breathing.

Medical Qigong (20 minutes)
Standing, slow movements focused on the flow of energy (Qi) through internal channels, accompanied by diaphragmatic breathing.

Yoga Therapy (20 minutes)
Postures and specialized exercises aimed at improving the musculoskeletal structure, particularly in the lower back, knees, shoulders, and spine. Emphasis on correcting faulty movement patterns.

Relaxation and Standing or Seated Meditation (10 minutes)
Nervous system relaxation, conscious breathing, and therapeutic silence.

Educational Goals

  • Reduce muscular tension and psychological stress
  • Improve breathing quality and increase inner energy
  • Correct movement structure and posture
  • Enhance focus, sleep, and emotional balance
  • Support management of chronic pain or skeletal disorders

Benefits and Values

  • Rehabilitation from the Inside Out
    The combination of Yoga Therapy and Qigong rebuilds the nervous, muscular, and bioenergetic systems. Exercises help improve flexibility, joint stability, and overall body performance, especially in sensitive areas such as the back, knees, and neck.

Balance of Vital Energy (Qi / Prana)
Qigong and conscious breathing activate and balance the energy flow in the body. This balance is fundamental for sustainable health and resilience against psychosomatic illnesses.

Mental Calm and Emotional Stability
Meditation, diaphragmatic breathing, and standing exercises soothe the sympathetic nervous system, reduce chronic stress, and regulate emotions—without dependence on medication or artificial methods.

Improved Focus and Mindfulness
Slow, controlled, breath-coordinated movements clear the mind from confusion and bring clarity. These practices lay a strong foundation for conscious living and precise decision-making.

Preventive Therapy
The course is designed to prevent structural degradation, joint stiffness, sleep disorders, immune weakness, and chronic fatigue. The therapeutic approach serves prevention, not just treatment.

Customizable Practices
Practice programs are adjusted according to each individual’s physical capacity, age, injuries, or health condition. There are no strict physical requirements; the focus is on natural progression.

Rooted in Tradition, Effective in Modern Life
The course is based on authentic Yoga Therapy and traditional Chinese Qigong, yet its method is tailored for the modern human. It integrates Eastern authenticity with contemporary needs.

No Tools Needed, Only Your Body
Unlike many therapeutic methods, this path progresses through your body, breath, and awareness. No external equipment or supplements are required; your body is the primary tool for healing.
