reduce stress,
calm your mind,
and boost immunity
qigong classes
With its roots in the ancient system of Chinese medicine, qigong is slow, meditative movement and conscious breathing while circulating and and stimulating ones own energy or qi through energy pathways.
These exercises stimulate the immune system, relieve stress and calm the adrenals as well as teach us to heal ourselves. We learn to do self massage along our acupuncture pathways so we can keep our qi moving and breaking up any blockages. According to Chinese medicine when we have blocked qi different areas of the body can start to have problems. This can happen in any area of the body or mind such as digestive, respiratory, reproductive, muscular as well as emotional and mental.
How does the body get blocked? That’s easy! Life can do that. Stress is the biggest cause but also, injury, not enough sleep, bad diet and poor lifestyle choices, and of course pandemics! It’s almost impossible to stay perfectly in harmony if we want to keep on living. That’s why it is important to connect the body and mind and keep our qi moving with certain exercises and breath work. It’s not about being perfect, but about being in balance.
I teach qigong at various locations and now online through Zoom and Facebook live.

What our qigong clients say:
“2022 is about health for me and how fortunate I was to meet Donna just in time to start a new journey. I Have been doing qigong classes with Donna and they are grounding and essential to my well-being. I didn’t know anything about qigong until I started studying with Donna and I have learned so much about the mind body connection through qigong. She helps me to calm down, become aware of my breath and be present in my body. Besides the body mind connection it promotes, the class is also like giving myself an acupressure massage and flowing, mindful movements.”
