Qigong 10-11am Somatics 11:15-12:30pm & Tai Chi 1-2pm Move with Ease - New Autumn 8 week course with Kath Revell / Ninja Granny 10th Sept - 29th Oct 2026 Qigong (pronounced “chi-gong”) means “energy work” and is often described as “meditation in movement”. It consists of slow, gentle flowing movements that are graceful, easy and enjoyable to do. Qigong is an ancient Chinese health exercise that enhances well-being in many different ways, including improving balance and co-ordination, increasing energy and strength, and relaxing and calming the mind and body. Somatics is natural movement, which is movement that is co-ordinated through the centre of the body. The aim is to release tension, which brings relief. Tension can be physical, mental and emotional and is held in the body. It builds up over time, becoming habitual. Habitual tension often can’t be felt, and if it can’t be felt it can’t be released. The slow, focussed movements of Somatics help you to discover that tension, then release it. The technique is to tighten your muscles, increasing the tension, so you can feel it. Once you feel it you can slowly relax the muscles. The slowness of the release is key. It gives your nervous system time to reset the tension in the muscles. This creates lasting change. This course is for everyone, experienced and complete beginners. The exercises are done standing, but all of them can be adapted for sitting down. With the standing exercises there are different levels, so you can keep improving. Kath Revell, aka Ninja Granny, has been learning and teaching Tai chi and Qigong for over 30 years and is a member of the Tai chi Union of GB. She runs regular classes in South East Cornwall.
