Chi Kung

Others. You will be guided by experienced teachers who have a deep understanding of Chi Kung and its transformative power.

Elemental Chi Kung is the foundation of this training programme. It is a progressive approach to Chi Kung that incorporates classic styles and philosophies with modern bodymind and energy concepts. The approach explores body and chi awareness as a way to deepen into our internal chi flow through movement, stillness, meditation, and breath. A creative space is sought to allow our essential nature to express itself and bring about transformation to an innermost reality.

Chi Kung, which translates as “energy work” in English, is an ancient Chinese form of movement exercise that promotes the flow of Chi (vital energy) through the body. It is a holistic practise that integrates stretching and mobilising the body and joints, breathing techniques, slow movement exercises, static postures, special walking methods, and meditation. By building up the body's vital energy, Chi Kung establishes physiological and psychological harmony. The theory behind Chi Kung is rooted in Chinese Medicine, Taoist and Buddhist philosophies, and practises.

At Chi Kung, the focus is on simplicity and intentionality. The movements are simple yet purposeful, aiming to move Chi in specific ways. Inspired by the movement of animals and nature, the movements can appear graceful and beautiful. They may follow energy channels in the body or orient around internal organs and body parts.

Chi Kung offers various opportunities for individuals to deepen their practise and pursue different paths. The Teacher Training programme is a comprehensive 14-month course that provides an in-depth understanding of the theory and practise of Chi Kung. It is designed to be a transformative journey of self-exploration, empowering participants to unlock their energetic potential and become knowledgeable instructors. With the guidance of experienced teachers, students will gain the skills to pass on their knowledge and create a positive impact on others.

In addition to the Teacher Training programme, Chi Kung also offers workshops and classes led by Thalbert Allen, co-founder and director of CECK.
