Gentle Chi Gong for Body and Mind
Health Recovery Chi Gong (also called Qigong) combines slow, mindful movement with deep breathing. It is designed to be gentle and restorative, so it suits beginners, older adults and anyone rebuilding strength or energy.
Both classes are run with a local community partner and taught by Arun Gujaran, founder of Leeds Tai Chi Academy.

Arun has been exploring and developing his practice in Tai Chi and Chi Gung for around thirty years, teaching classes and workshops in Leeds and around the UK and Europe. He has been accredited to teach meditation by his Buddhist teachers and has practised with many renowned meditation masters.
He draws on a wide range of ancient techniques alongside modern scientific research to inform his teaching — guiding beginners and experienced students alike.
