And Sally, the founders of Kingshill Tai Chi, are passionate about promoting health and well-being through the practise of Tai Chi and Qigong. With over 2 years of dedicated study under the guidance of Professor Hu Xiaofei, they have attained 5th Level (Duan) Certificates, a testament to their expertise and commitment.

At Kingshill Tai Chi, they offer a variety of classes in both Tai Chi and Qigong. These ancient Chinese exercises are suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels. With slow, gentle movements, these practises combine breathing, movement, meditation, and mental focus to enhance overall health and well-being.

Qigong, also known as Chi Gong, encompasses a wide range of exercises aimed at promoting health. With over 9000 different exercises, some static, some moving, and some using simple equipment, Qigong focuses on principles such as improved breathing and posture. These exercises not only reduce stress and develop a meditative state but also provide physical exercise that can be tailored to individual fitness levels. Qigong exercises are rooted in traditional Chinese medicine principles.

Tai Chi, on the other hand, can be traced back about 300 years to the Chen family. Initially a martial art, it evolved into a new art form that combines fast and slow, soft and hard movements. Tai Chi exercises for health gained popularity when it was introduced in Beijing in the 19th century. Practitioners discovered that Tai Chi promotes good health, relaxation, and meditation.

Beyond improving balance, this practise also enhances posture, protecting the back and facilitating everyday tasks. The benefits of improved posture and breathing extend to stress reduction and relaxation not just during exercise but also in everyday life.
