Event description

A two-day seminar with Bill Ryan at 21 South Street Arts Centre, Reading.

Can you feel and assess the state of your own qi? Can you differentiate between your and your patients’ qi? Can you use your feeling awareness to help you better locate your patients’ acupuncture lines and points? Can you assess directly the state of the qi in a channel, such as its fullness or emptiness? Bill will teach you exercises that can enable you to say yes to these questions. You’ll also learn a framework to help you organise and interpret your and your patients’ experiences. Anyone with an interest in qi is welcome.
This course will prepare you for more advanced seminars such as 'The art of projecting qi'.

Bill Ryan has studied qi gong, tai chi, and related energy arts since 1980 with Daoist Lineage Master Bruce Frantzis. In 1992 Bill founded Brookline Tai Chi near Boston, USA which under his direction reached a peak enrollment of over 450 students. He now teaches qi gong and practises qi gong tui na bodywork.
