DESCRIPTION:Looking for a simple way to relax, move more and take a moment for yourself? Come and discover Baduanjin, an ancient Chinese Qigong practice that promotes health and balance through gentle, mindful movement.

With a history of more than 1,000 years and roots in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Baduanjin features eight simple techniques that can support different aspects of physical and mental well-being.

During the workshop, you will be guided through the complete Baduanjin sequence and learn how to:

Release tension in the back, neck, wrists and waist.
Increase energy and develop better posture.
Practise the movements easily in small spaces, including at your desk.

Incorporate just 15 minutes of practice into your daily routine to support physical, mental and emotional well-being.

The workshop is friendly, welcoming and inclusive, and is suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels. No previous experience is needed - simply wear comfortable clothing and come ready to try something new.

Whether you want to reduce stress, improve flexibility or simply enjoy some quiet time, Baduanjin offers a gentle way to reconnect with your body and refresh your mind.

Come along and explore how this traditional Chinese practice can become part of your everyday life with the tutors from the Confucius Institute at the University of Southampton.
