Richard’s first impression of Qigong is positive after five days at the Summer Course 2011

The family is doing well

My partner inspired me to join the Summer course and now I have done qigong for five and a half days. Our daughter Ida is also here and it feels great to be with the family here. So many nice people, good practice and the atmosphere is very comfortable on the course. We are very happy.

Well organized

I have been a trainer my self and organized camps in martial arts so now it feels really comfortable to just be one of the people in the line. The course is very well organized, peaceful and relaxing. It’s nice to practice and that everything is fixed for you. It’s a completely different life here. I can relax and it’s a very good environment to be able to let go of the outside world.

Improved body control and movement

I feel pretty good, although of course I have my problems which I hope will be good. I’m pretty stiff after sitting in front of the computer. I feel, during these past days, that my body control is better. My mobility has increased and the shoulders have worked themselves backwards. I have been able to work out the lumps between my shoulder blades on the back and it feels good to be able, through their own movements, to massage where it is otherwise difficult to reach.Richard's first impression of Qigong is positive after five days at the Summer Course 2011

Development of the character

It is four years since I actively did physical training and I’m pretty out of shape so it feels great to move again. I regard qigong as a very good physical and mental training. It is to train the will and physically gain control of the body. I appreciate that very much.
