Qigong at Mt Hope Farm (Outdoor Class)

CLOSED

About the Class

Outdoor Classes start in May! These classes will meet at Mount Hope Farm (250 Metacom Ave, Bristol RI.) Classes will be moved indoors in case of rain; please sign up by 8am to be notified of any location changes. Qigong (pronounced chee-gung) nourishes the body, mind, and spirit. We focus on stretching and strengthening, along with mobilizing, cultivating, and enhancing the flow of qi, or life energy, through our bodies in carefully sequenced postures. This class is appropriate for all levels. Qigong is based in Taoist philosophy, which emphasizes our interconnectedness with others and with nature. It is also about cultivating harmony and oneness with the universe. To that end, we work on both yin postures (more passive and relaxing) and yang (more active and mobilizing) within each class. The focus is on connecting mind, body, and spirit through love and acceptance.

Special Instructions

For our outdoor classes, we'll meet at Mount Hope Farm (250 Metacom Ave, Bristol.) Please bring everything that you need for class (i.e. yoga mat, water, sunscreen if necessary, etc.) When you pull into the driveway, please go to the second parking lot labeled “BARN PARKING” on your left. Class will meet in the field that's directly across from the parking lot. Just look for Janet! If we need to move the class inside due to rain or excessively cold weather, then we will meet at 36 Gooding Ave in Bristol. If class needs to move indoors, we will notify you by 8am Friday!
