About QiGong
QiGong movements are synchronized with the breath as a way to relax the body, create flow, and balance energy. Qi is energy, and the movements of QiGong are ways to cultivate this life-force energy within you. Furthermore, the practice allows the body to restore and connect to its natural state of health and harmony.
Meet the Instructor
Yesica Barrera is a certified Holden QiGong teacher. Holden QiGong is a modern style under the umbrella of Medical Qigong. The movements and techniques utilized in this practice come from the 5 Element Flows and are designed to keep the Qi flowing and balanced for optimal health and well being.
Yesica also holds a 4th degree black belt in Jin Sei Ryu Karate-do, and has been training in karate for over 22 years.
