The Foundations of Qigong: Embody the Art of Energy Flow
25-27 September 2026 | Now Studio Bristol
Join me, Darcy Summerton, for a three day immersion into the ancient art of Qigong and Chinese Medicine designed for curious wellbeing professionals, movement practitioners and yoga students or teachers looking to deepen their understanding of energy, breath and embodiment.
Qigong is an ancient Chinese movement practice that combines breath, intention and mindful movement to cultivate and circulate Qi - our life force energy. Gentle yet profoundly transformative, it offers a fresh perspective on movement that beautifully complements yoga, meditation and other holistic practices.
Whether you’re looking to enrich your teaching or simply reconnect with your own embodied practice, this course will give you a strong foundation in both the philosophy and practical application of Qigong.
Over three days you’ll explore:
Qi, Meridians and the Three Dantien
The Five Elements and Traditional Chinese Medicine
Breathwork and embodied movement
The Twelve Rivers Qigong sequence
Therapeutic applications for health and wellbeing
Practical teaching principles and class sequencing
How to confidently integrate Qigong into your own practice or professional offering
On completion, you’ll receive a 30 hour CPD certificate, accredited in partnership with The Way.
Early Bird Offer: Receive £50 off when you book before the end of August.
