Experience Shaolin White Crane Class with Master Yang

Follow-along with a fascinating lesson on Soft-style Qìgōng (energy work) with Master Yang, Jwing-Ming (楊俊敏博士). Soft qìgōng movements use a large range of motion with minimal muscular tension coordinated with deep, relaxed breathing. Practice will energize the entire body and prevent many common injuries and ailments, such as joint pain in the hands, arms, shoulders and back.

At the age of fifteen, Dr. Yang started his kung fu training with Shaolin White Crane (Bai He) Master Cheng, Gin-Gsao (曾金灶). In thirteen years of study (1961-1974) under Master Cheng, he became an expert in the White Crane style of Chinese martial arts, which includes soft and hard methods of qìgōng, and a full kung fu curriculum.

In this program, Master Yang teaches you Soft Qìgōng fundamentals, including

• Powerful whole-body strengthening movements
• Stationary, rocking, and stepping qìgōng methods
• Vital keypoints for correct practice and better health
• A stimulating soft qìgōng exercise sequence

This beginner-friendly class progresses into deeper points, including how to lead more qì through the whole body with Grand Circulation. Master Yang encourages you through a fun and inspiring workout with the goal of establishing your ongoing qìgōng practice.
