Qigong has a thousand-year-old history and is one of the 5 pillars of traditional Chinese medicine, just like acupuncture.
It involves using exercises to optimize energy within the body, mind, and spirit, with the goal of improving and maintaining health and well-being. It has been designed to awaken, increase and harmonize the flow of Qi, the vital energy that circulates in our body.
Its regular practice improves joint elasticity, flexibility, coordination and ability to concentrate. It strengthens muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascias, balances emotions, reduces stress and anxiety, strengthens the immune system and harmonizes the body and mind. 
The practice of Qi gong calls for a wide variety of slow and fluid movements, synchronized with breathing as well as static postures, breathing exercises, self-massages and meditations that allows the relaxation of the body, the calming of the mind and letting go.
