A REN XUE Africa Workshop
Introduction to Yuan Qigong
Join us in Umhlanga (Durban) for
a One Day Qigong Immersive in the first two methods of the well-established, globally recognised and esteemed Qigong system,
Yuan Qigong
Saturday 18 May 2024
Tian Yuan and Di Yuan (Methods 1 and 2)
A perfectly dovetailed pair of introductory methods.
The ancient wisdom Qigong teachings advise that one ‘first works Qi, then nourishes Qi after’. This ensures that Yuan Qi gathered in an initial moving practice is consolidated into the deeper structures of the body in an ensuing standing or still Qigong practice. And so, with Tian Yuan, one gathers primordial undifferentiated Yuan Qi of the Universe rapidly and effectively into the body and then stabilises it in three internal Qi storage centres called Dantians, through the accompanying practice, Di Yuan. This ‘intelligent’, uplifting, Source Qi is then distributed throughout the body via the Dantians, and the effect is improved health and well-being at all levels (body, mind, heart, and spirit).
What you will learn
– A better understanding of Qi (what it is, how it differentiates into form, its primary movements and their relevance, why ‘what you think’ is so important in how your life ‘appears’).
– The practical movements of two foundational Qigong methods specifically designed to effectively improve your health and wellbeing.
– How these two methods lay a sound foundation for following Yuan Qigong methods that further deepen the cultivation of your mind, Heart, and spirit/Shen.
– Embodied practices to bring you quickly ‘back inside’ to the calm, Peaceful Self, naturally and enjoyably.
Benfits of these practices
– The rapid manifestation of deeper states of ‘relaxed and calm’, that spill over into everyday life.
– Improvement in general aches, pains, and body ailments, in direct proportion to your ongoing application.
– Improved quality of sleep.
– Inner harmony developing.
– More capacity to handle the general stressors of life.
– An increasing ability to respond calmly to ‘external’ life rather than being chronically triggered by patterned reactivity.

Please Read Through Our Cancellation Policy
“CANCELLATION AND REFUND POLICY
It is our intention to accommodate the reality that things can change unexpectedly. However, there are costs associated with booking a venue and catering, plus administrative costs, which put us at risk should you cancel. Our policy, therefore, attempts to be fair to all involved:
If you need to cancel your workshop registration, please do so early. Late cancellations may make it difficult for someone else to have the opportunity to attend. Once you have paid any portion of the workshop fee, administrative and cancellation fees will apply, depending on the cancellation date.
If you cancel your booking:
- 30 days before the workshop date, we will refund all fees paid minus an applicable administrative charge of R70.
- Less than 30 – 8days before the workshop, we will refund all fees paid minus R400 per person cancellation fee.
- Less than 7 days before the workshop – no refund possible because catering would have been ordered, venue fee paid, and materials printed. The exception is for a qualified medical emergency.
Refunds will be paid within 30 days of receiving a written cancellation notice.
PLEASE NOTE THAT:
Anyone leaving the workshop early for anything other than a qualified emergency (medical emergency or a death in the family) will not receive any refund.
If someone leaves early due to a qualified emergency (medical emergency or a death in the family), we will refund 60% of the workshop fee.
REN XUE Africa reserves the right at any time to require that a participant leave the workshop if a participant’s behavior is considered to be either excessively disruptive or dangerous to self or others. In this case, all workshop fees are non-refundable.
Cancellation by REN XUE Africa:
If REN XUE Africa is required to cancel the workshop due to unforeseen reasons, we will notify you as soon as possible and will refund the full fee amount paid.
I am really glad I signed up to do this course. Found it just in time.
The practice of yuan gong has a lovely structure and very simple to follow. Once I learned the movements, the flow is easy. I look forward to doing my practice and am already feeling lighter. My heart is filled with gratitude.
With much love and appreciation!
I have been drawn to qigong for a long time and had been looking for qigong classes without success for quite a while. As I googled it once more hopefully I was very excited to happen upon an upcoming qigong workshop in Craighall Park. I immediately made plans to enroll myself and looked forward to the day with much anticipation.
The workshop was everything I hoped for and much more. It introduced me to the ‘real thing’, the authentic qigong I was searching for. The workshop was a springboard to ongoing classes for me that adds so much value to my life. I have tremendous respect and appreciation for the knowledge, wisdom and support that Louise imparts with the workshops and classes.
Who is this for?
People new to Yuan Qigong who wish to have the opportunity to understand and learn the first & second methods and their underpinning principles.
What will I learn?
By the end of the workshop you will be able to practice the first two methods, Tian Yuan & Di Yuan, on your own. You would then be able to easily follow cued MP3 & MP4 recordings and/or join established classes.
Comprehensive notes will be provided.
