About this class
Practising outdoors changes everything. On Downley Common you have grass underfoot, open sky, birdsong and moving air — the conditions qigong was designed for. This hour-long evening class is our only in-person session and it draws a friendly, mixed-age group who often stay chatting afterwards.
We work with flowing tai chi qigong forms: slow, continuous, weight-shifting movement that builds balance and leg strength while calming the mind. It is a beautiful way to finish the working day.
Who it suits
- Improving balance, stability and leg strength
- People who want face-to-face teaching and company
- Anyone who feels better for time outdoors
