In June, 2008:

7 Star Ch'i Kung, Leg Rooting Exercises and the Tao of Increasing Vital Energy
classes begin in June (2008). Seminar three will explore three important areas of Ch'i Kung:

First, "The Tao of Increasing Vital Enery" is listed as the second chapter of "The 13 Ch'i Kung Elixers of Immortality". It reveals treasured secrets of taoist's training to strengthen kidney function, increase vital energy and maintain a youthful body.

Second, we will study the wonders of "Seven Star" Ch'i Kung. This Ch'i Kung is recognized as one of the most effective exercises for rejuvenation discovered in the last century. This is based on ancient text unearthed in China's tomb of the terra cotta soldiers.

Third, special leg training will be discussed. Specific exercises such as "greeting the morning sun" will be introduced to increase leg power and develop greater balance.
