SUMMARY:Qi Gong for Women: A 5-Week Series BEGINS
DESCRIPTION:No experience needed \nJoin me for a gentle\, nourishing movement series designed to support women’s bodies through all seasons of life. In this five-week Qi Gong series\, you’ll be guided through light\, flowing movements drawn from several forms of Qi Gong and foundational Tai Chi Chuan principles—focused on energy cultivation\, balance\, and ease. \nThere are many different kinds of moving and meditative Qi Gong. Not all practices commonly taught today work with internal energy in the same way or with the same depth. In this series\, we will be practicing heart-centered forms that I have found to be particularly effective at moving\, balancing\, and harmonizing energy—while remaining gentle\, accessible\, and supportive of the nervous system. Many of the practices I am sharing come from my recently completed certification as a Tao Tantric Arts Facilitator. I am thrilled to integrate these practices into work with my community. \nThis work is especially beneficial for: \n\n\nWomen’s bodies and changing hormonal cycles \n\n\nHealthy aging and vitality \n\n\nEmotional balance and nervous system regulation \n\n\nOverall well-being and embodied presence \n\n\nWe’ll focus on simple\, easy-to-learn movements that you can realistically integrate into your daily life. Each class will also include a few minutes of a self-healing meditation protocol to support inner balance and your body’s natural capacity for restoration. \nPracticing together matters – at the same time and/or place. When we move and cultivate energy in a shared field\, the experience is often amplified—more grounded\, more present\, and more nourishing than practicing alone. I am very much looking forward to sharing this space with you. \n\nA Note on Pangu Shengong\nOne of the Qi Gong forms that has been most impactful in my own personal practice is Pangu Shengong. While learning this form is not required to participate in the series\, it can greatly support and deepen the experience of energy cultivation and integration. I always encourage all my students and clients to do the Pangu Shengong Moving Form (and other forms too if learned) daily with any other daily practices. \nSo\, if you have not already learned the Pangu Moving Form and are interested in doing so\, please let me know. I’m happy to share a way for you to learn this form as a separate\, optional offering that can be integrated alongside this series. \n\nLogistics\nFormat: Offered in-person and online• All sessions are recorded and available for one week after delivery• Even if you plan to attend in person\, you may join online on any week that works better for you \nDates:January 21\, 28February 4\, 18\, 25(No class February 11) \nTime:6:30–7:45 PMEastern (U.S.) \nOnline attendance:Link provided in registration and reminder emails. \nIn-Person Location:East Raleigh\, NC(Exact location provided upon registration)Space is limited for in-person attendance.

SUMMARY:Qi Gong and Tai Chi Fundamentals 5-Week Series BEGINS
DESCRIPTION:Join me for a gentle\, nourishing movement series designed to develop internal energy\, support health and happiness\, and cultivate peaceful intention. \nIn this five-week Qi Gong series open to all people\, you’ll be guided through light\, flowing movements drawn from several forms of Qi Gong\, along with foundational principles from Tai Chi Chu’an—a martial branch of Qi Gong that emphasizes internal strength\, continuity\, and grounded presence. While this series stands fully on its own\, it is also intended as a supportive precursor to future internal martial arts training\, which can help cultivate resilience\, stability\, and strength from the inside out. \nThere are many different kinds of moving and meditative Qi Gong practiced around the world today. Not all forms work with internal energy in the same way or with the same depth. In this series\, we will be practicing heart-centered forms that I have found to be particularly effective at moving\, balancing\, and harmonizing energy—while remaining gentle\, accessible\, and supportive of the nervous system. \nThe practices shared in this series are open to all people and are curated from my ongoing study and practice since 2012 with teachers including Qi Gong Master Ou\, Tai Chi Chu’an Master Vincent Chu\, Paul Fraser\, and Minke de Vos. \nThis work is especially beneficial for: \n\n\nSupporting harmony and the even resolution of chronic health challenges \n\n\nHealthy aging\, vitality\, and internal strength \n\n\nEmotional balance and nervous system regulation \n\n\nOverall well-being and embodied presence \n\n\nWe’ll focus on simple\, easy-to-learn movements that you can realistically integrate into daily life. Each class will also include a short self-healing meditation protocol to support inner balance and the body’s natural capacity for restoration. \nPracticing together matters—whether in the same place or at the same time. When we move and cultivate energy in a shared intentional field\, the experience is often amplified: more grounded\, more present\, and more nourishing than practicing alone. I am very much looking forward to sharing this space and practice with you. \n\nDetails : Register here \nFormat: Offered Online via ZoomAll sessions are recorded and available for one week after delivery. \n#1 Wednesdays — May 6\, 13\, 20\, 27\, June 3 \nTime:6:00-7:15 PMEastern (U.S.) \nOnline attendance:Link provided in registration and reminder emails. \nPricing:$138 per person \nRegister for May 6 – June 3 Series \n(Photo: Practicing Pangu Tai Chi at Umstead Park in NC\, 2016)

SUMMARY:Moving Form Qi Gong (Pangu Shengong Level 1)
DESCRIPTION:– All times are Eastern USA Time\nLocation:\nLivestream via Zoom  \n\n-Required: SIGN UP IN ADVANCE HERE-\nDescription:\n–This introductory class for Qi Gong Instruction for a particular Qi Gong method: Pangu Shengong – a powerful and simple way to practice Qi Gong and to build (cultivate) healing and balancing energy for yourself. — \n\n\nErin will be teaching a powerful\, simple\, and effective form of Qi Gong called Pangu Moving Form Qi Gong – also known as Pangu Shengong Foundational Qi Cultivation Moving Form. Pangu Moving Form Instruction is unique even by Qi Gong standards. This practice is much more than the meditative moments that are a part of most qi gong forms known today – it is a deeply effective method of elevating and healing body\, heart\, and soul. \n\n\n“Participants learn a Qigong form that cultivates Qi to develop a strong energetic & physical body\, healing the body from illness and injury to facilitate and maintain optimal health. Participants receive energy to assist them in healing from illnesses and/or injuries; & to elevate the heart & soul to allow for more effective energy cultivation when practicing this Qigong.” \n\n\nQi can be translated as life force\, vital force\, and energy\, among other ways. When the Qi in our bodies\, which has always been there\, is abundant and flowing freely\, we can be more in harmony with our environment and free from disease and health conditions. Qi Gong can be translated to mean “cultivation of life force or energy”. \n\n\nPangu Shengong is a unique and powerful way to do this. Based on the concepts and power of loving-kindness\, practitioners are able to start to get benefits from practicing this form right away. Once you learn this form\, you never lose the foundational energy built into the instruction; daily and regular practice will help you be healthier\, happier\, and stronger. \n\n\nIn 90 minutes of this Qi Gong instruction\, you will know completely this health and happiness-promoting practice. $124.\n\nAfter you learn this practice from me or another certified instructor (or Master Ou)\, you can attend any group practices for free online or in-person when offered. \n\n\nNot sure if this is for you? Contact Erin with Questions (+1 919.616.9218).\n\nErin is certified to teach both the Moving Form and Non-Moving Form and is an advanced student of Pangu Shengong founder\, Qi Gong Master Ou\, Wen Wei.\n\n-Required: SIGN UP IN ADVANCE HERE-\n$120 – retakes are free\n\n\npractice of Pangu Shengong
