    Hi, Karen. This is a lovely, comforting practice. Thank you so much! I notice you use a Shao Gong closing on all of your videos. I like this movement very much and would love to better understand its meaning. Would you be able to share that? Again, thank you!

      Simply speaking, Shao Gong means to gather all the Qi cultivated and store in the Dan Tien. It is a wonderful centering and balancing movement.

    Clearly these movements are from Feng Zhiqiang’s HunYuan Taiji/Qigong system as first taught in the US (trees clearly indicate California) by Zhang Xue Xin. It is always important to acknowledge one’s teachers and system.
