Every Thursday our CAN-Move Tai Chi and Qigong class takes place delivered by the lovely Mags.

Last week I went to visit the class and the group shared some feedback about the session,what they enjoy /how they benefit.See below for just some of the wonderful feedback.

🙏’I really love the Tai Chi and Qigong. I feel the exercise is very beneficial and love the people I have met in the group. The teacher Mags never stops smiling, has patience beyond words and paces the sessions for every ability’

🙏’The peaceful feeling I have whilst doing Tai Chi and afterwards. A lovely group of people who are so caring’

🙏’Helps with balance, strengthening my core and I am now more conscious of the need to relax and am learning ways to do this. I have gained some understanding of the spiritual and physical benefits of Tai Chi & Qigong. I have met some lovely, caring people and made some good friends’

🙏’This class is the highlight of my week.I carry the Tai Chi forward into my daily life,and it’s helped with my movement a lot’

🙏’Helps me to relax,helps me with my breathing and mindfulness’

Mags also spoke about what the practices are about:

‘Tai Chi is a form of slow-moving martial art movements, where you learn to feel the energy of the movements without holding onto tension.
Qigong means energy practice.Qi (pronounced ‘chee’) means energy.Gong (pronounced ‘gung’) means to practice.’

📑Research highlights how Tai Chi and Qigong can be beneficial across the cancer care continuum, helping to manage cancer related fatigue, ease pain,lower stress levels ,improve physical function and quality of life.

These sessions are normally once monthly. Looking forward to our next one in October.🪵🌳🍁🍂🪾🌸

‘I love these sessions. The gardening is wonderful, I learn new things all the time and having the opportunity to work in such beautiful gardens is amazing. The RHS staff are lovely supportive people and it’s great to meet other folk who have had similar health journeys in the session.It’s also such a fantastic feeling when we get a job done together, a lovely team spirit! Just can’t recommend this enough ❤️’
