Shibashi classes at San Bao School

These archived recordings of the Taiji Shibashi classes taken from our live (streamed) classes and can also be used as a follow up to the on-demand Taiji Shibashi course.

These classes are suitable for beginners and intermediate practitioners of Qigong.

The content that is listed for each lesson only overs the exercises practiced during the lesson. It does not include all of the advice and guidance that is given.

The Taiji Shibashi is probably one of the most practiced exercise sets of Qigong but the vast majority of people who practice them are it are not doing Qigong. They are working physically and merely moving their arms and legs about. They are not moving their Qi and that is because they have not been taught how to.
