Da Yan Wild Goose Qigong

Da Yan Wild Goose Qigong is an ancient health practice, similar to Tai Chi, focusing on moving your body gently with the breath, creating relaxation, inner harmony and health.

Da Yan translates to Great Bird and originates from the Kunlun School of Daoism in the Jin Dynasty (1,700 years ago).

Over one week, you will receive the opportunity to learn a full Qigong practice, that you can then practice at home, or in a group with others. This practice mimics the movements of the Da Yan (Wild Goose), a bird revered in China for its strength and health, as it gently strengthens its body and mind to fly a long migratory flight over the Himalaya Mountains.

The Rainy Day Practice of the Da Yang Wild Goose qigong is a shortened form, keeping all the basic principles and essence of Qi health cultivation, and consists of 26 movements.
These gentle movements bring together the observation of the laws of nature, thousands of years of Chinese Medicine, a continual linage of practice over many centuries, and a reputation for improving health and longevity.

Each day you will learn and practice the gentle movements of Da Yan Wild Goose Qigong, followed by Qigong meditation.

After six years of playing Rugby Union, Matt felt amazed the first time he tried Qigong and Shiatsu (in 1991), that something so gentle could feel so relaxing and healing.

The inner peace he felt when practicing both Qigong and Shiatsu helped to inspire Matt to study Chinese Medicine.

He now runs a full time therapy practice in Bellingen as a Chinese Medicine Practitioner, treating patients with Acupuncture, Chinese Herbal Medicine, Shiatsu, Massage, and running weekly Qigong and Japanese Yoga classes. Matt also runs a community clinic in Bellingen every Wednesday (since 2010).
