Qigong teaches us to stay centred and divinely connected as we move through life.
Tan Tien Qigong
To prevent becoming ‘spacey”, we will practice Tan Tien Qigong to anchor ourselves to our core power
and the earth. “The deeper we go, the higher we can rise”.
By breathing deeply, toning the pelvic floor and building core compression, our internal power opens the body/mind.Playful shamanic animal forms will strengthen different areas of the body.
Come alive with dragon and tiger breath!
Tao Energy Basics
We will continue to deepen our practice of chi cultivation with:
• Inner Smile Meditation transforms the emotions through loving acceptance.
• Microcosmic Orbit circulates and generates chithrough major energy pathways.
• Chi Self-Massage stimulates chi and blood circulation to rejuvenate the body.
• Six Healing Sounds releases stress, toxins and imbalanced chi out of the organs.
• Qigong (Chi Kung) directs chi through powerful breathing and flowing gestures.

Minke de Vos teaches spiritual embodiment at Silent Ground Retreats, and is known as a top teacher of Qigong, self-healing and Kundalini Development. She has worked along side of Taoist Master Mantak Chia for over 25 years. She inspires practitioners of all levels to live with loving presence. Author of "Heart Qigong", CDs & DVDs for home practice.
David Gyurkovics Universal Tao Instructor, has studied and practiced Taoist internal arts for 18 years and has been teaching for 10 years. He is a practitioner of Medical Qigong and Acutonics Sound Healing. He teaches people how to breathe as the basis for healthy living.
"Minke de Vos is one of my favorite teachers
in the Taoist Arts. The work she teaches is easy to grasp and, at the
same time, one would never reach the limit of its potential. An unappreciated
aspect of all healing is whether one has the vitality or simply the energy
to heal. At that level, the Taoist work addresses that foundational aspect
to connecting with life's source of energy and power." John Tjenos,
Therapist
"People do not need experience with meditation
or yoga. The Inner Smile will take them gently inside and the Chi Kung
will move and loosen their bodyminds and open them to a new energy. I
believe that when we cultivate our primal creative energy together we
have the potential to create deeper connections with ourselves, our loved
ones and our community."
Minke de Vos
