Wild Goose Qigong Brisbane

Wild Goose Qigong Brisbane Qigong is a Chinese health exercise made up of gentle movements that connect with the acupuncture points and meridians of our body. Classes available now

Qigong means exercise for cultivating qi. There are many styles and schools of Qigong, but one of the better known systems is Wild Goose Qigong, dating back around 1800 years. The 27th inheritor of this system was called Yang Meijun and she trained a number of close students, amongst whom is Master Michael Tse, who is based in London, in the UK. Master Michael Tse trains a group of instructors to

teach and spread the system around the world, including in Australia and New Zealand. Jane Pollard and Vera Externest have been students of Master Tse's since 1997 and Tse Qigong Centre instructors since 2000. They moved to Australia in 2011 and have been teaching in Brisbane and Toowoomba since 2002. Tom Rogers has been studying Chinese Martial Arts since 1998 – or age 16.
“After trying out a few different styles for a number of years, I was lucky enough to find my way to the Tse Qigong Centre (Australia) in 2004. I attended a weekend seminar while Master Tse was visiting from London and was amazed by the beautiful forms and mastery of the skill. The following week I began studying Dayan Qigong with Master Tse’s Todai (students) here is Brisbane. My two teachers or Sifu’s Jane Pollard & Vera Externest run Qigong classes in Brisbane which I started going to and still attend to this day. WHAT WILL I LEARN? We follow the syllabus of the Tse Qigong Centre: initially you will learn some sets of simple exercises devised by Master Michael Tse, which introduce movements from the forms. It's a bit like learning a vocabulary of movement, and it makes learning the sequences you are taught later much easier. These exercises are very good to use for general health care. Many of them have quite specific benefits and the exercises can be used as a kind of tool kit for looking after your health. They are perfect for those practitioners, who, because of mobility restrictions, old age or other health problems, might choose to stick with simpler exercises. DAYAN QIGONG SYLLABUS: After learning the foundation sets, students begin to learn forms, starting with the Wild Goose 1st 64, then the 2nd 64 movements. These are followed by Green Sea Swimming Dragon, Jade Pillar Gong, Slapping Healthy Gong and Kunlun Twining Hands Bagua. It takes some years to learn up to this point and the syllabus then carries on with Cotton Palm, Triple Crossing Spiral Gong, Eight Pulling Waist Gong, Plum Blossom Gong, Seven Star Opening Points Gong and Peaceful Position Meditation. These forms are the first two levels of Kunlun Dayan Qigong. We are associated with the Tse Qigong Centre. www.tseqigongcentre.com

Another great class tonight. The process of learning Qigong requires patience. It's not just a case of learning the movements. It takes time for the movements to become part of you.

Ren 任脈and Du Mai督脈

We have talked about how the Ren任脉 and Du Mai督脉 are the second as third most important channels because they form the Xiao Zhou Tian小周天, Small Heavenly Circle, when they join together. Once the Xiao Zhou Tian if formed the Qi will keep flowing and all the 12 Major Channels will be smooth and the Qi will flow better. The body’s system will be strong and we would rather focus on this than induvial channels.

However, between the Ren and Du Mai, do you know which is more important? This is the Ren Mai. Although with both Mai the Qi starts at the bottom at the Huiyin point會陰 and rises up the front and back of the body, but if we want the Qi to flow better we must be able to let the Qi flow down the front via the Ren Mai. The more we bring the Qi down, as in Fang Song放鬆 and Shou Gong 收功 where we bring the Qi down from the head to the Dantian, then the Dantian will be stronger and the flow of Qi will also be stronger. Then it can rise up from the Dantian. We cannot bring the Qi up by ourselves, we need to bring the Qi down first. Then when there is enough Qi it will rise up by itself. This is the natural way.

Every time we bring our hands down from the face to the Dantian the Qi will flow down the Ren Mai and so the flow of Ren Mai will become smooth and the Du Mai will also be smooth and then the Xiao Zhou Tian will be formed. So the Ren Mai is the second most important channel and the Du Mai is the third most important channel.

Second and Third Most Important Channels

There are many channels in the body. Before we talk about the most important channel we must first understand the second and the third most important channels. The Ren任脉 and Du Mai督脉 are equally important and these are the second and the third most important channels in the body. The system of channels or meridians is called Jinglou 經絡. The main channels in the body, like the Ren, Du, Dai etc, are the Eight Extra Channels which we call Mai脉. The Eight Extra Channels or Eight Unusual Mai奇經八脈 are stronger and allow more Qi to flow around the body. They are like the motorways which can take more traffic in the UK.

The second and third most important Mai are the Ren and Du Mai, why is this? This is because, If more Qi is able to flow through the Ren and Du then the 12 Ordinary Channels will be smooth and in good condition.

The 12 Main Channels are十二經脈:

Lung Channel of Hand Taiyin 手太陰肺經
Larger Intestine Channel of the Hand Yangming手陽明大腸經
Stomach Channel of the Foot Yangming 足陽明胃經
Spleen Channel of the Foot Taiyin足太陰脾經
Heart Channel of the Hand Shaoyin 手少陰心經
Small Intestine Channel of the Hand Taiyang手太陽小腸經
Bladder Channel of the Foot Taiyang足太陽膀胱經
Kidney Channel of the Foot Shaoyin足少陰腎經
Pericardium Channel of the Hand Jueyin 手厥陰心包經
Sanjiao (Triple Warmer) Channel of the Hand Shaoyang手少陽三焦經
Gall Bladder Channel of the Foot Shaoyang 足少陽膽經
Liver Channel of the Foot Jueyin 足厥陰肝經
When these channels are smooth and in good condition, then it means all the channels of the internal organs are strong and healthy, and it also means you are healthy too.

Master Tse’s Qigong Dao #51

Internal and External Body

When we are practising Qigong, it is easy to feel the Qi flowing inside. In the beginning, we just feel warm, feel good and then might start to feel tingling in the hands and in particular the finger tips. Then as we practise more, we begin to feel things in other parts of the body. At first you might find these feeling unusual, but in the end you will feel good. This is most important.

Once we have started practising the body will begin to become more active inside and will respond more to the outside. If we want to be healthy, then we need the internal body to be more active and sensitive, more than usual. Then you can gather more Qi from outside the body.

The external body should also relate, respond and be more connected to the internal body. This means when we move our arms or take a step, or turn our waist, it is not just our arm, leg or waist moving, but instead the movement comes from inside the body. This is the natural way and why we should always remain relaxed as it helps the internal and the external body connect more deeply. Then the Qi can flow better and more strongly, then the healthier we are.

Master Tse’s Qigong Dao #50

Ren Mai 任脈 and Du Mai督脈

When we practise Qigong, we must understand and know about the Ren 任脉 and Du Mai 督脉. The Ren Mai runs down the front of the body along the centre. It starts at the Huiyin 會陰 point between the legs to the Cheng Jiang point 承漿穴. The Ren Mai controls the blood, the more blood we have the smoother the Ren Mai.

The Du Mai also starts at the Huiyin point and goes up the back, following the spine, the neck to the top of the head and then down the face to the nose and then to centre of the top gum in the mouth and this is the Yin Jiao point 齦交穴 . The Du Mai controls the Qi. More Qi the smoother the Du Mai

We can see that there is a connection of the Ren Channel and the end of the Du Channel at the mouth. When we close the mouth the Ren and Du Mai connect and the Qi can pass through from one to the other, also we will feel calmer and more settled. This because the Qi passes from the Ren Mai to the Du Mai and also the Du Mai passes Qi to the Ren Mai. That is Xiao Zhou Tian小周天, it means “ Small Heavenly Cycle”

Therefore when we practise Qigong we should close the mouth so the Qi can run through the Ren and Du Mai. It is best if the Qi rises up the Du Mai and then comes down through the Ren Mai. Whenever we start a Qigong form we raise up our hands, the Qi rises up the Du Mai, we then lower our hands in front of us to the Dantian and the Qi passes down through the Ren Mai.

Master Tse’s Qigong Dao #49

Xiao Zhou Tian小周天

When we perform Fang Song放鬆, we stimulate the front channel, the Ren Mai任脉 and the back channel the Du Mai 督脉. “Ren任” means “duty” and” Du督” means “direct or governor”. These channels need to be smooth and also connected together. Once we close our mouths and let the weight go onto our legs, these two channels will form a circle. This circle we call Xiao Zho Tian小周天, which means Small Heavenly Circle. A Heavenly Circle must be very important. We have many channels all over the body. In particular, the 12 main channels relate to our major organs, such as the lungs, heart etc. however these are not as important as the Ren Mai and Du Mai. Once Ren Mai and Du Mai has been formed a circle then it is much easier for the other 12 main channels to flow smoothly and have more Qi, then we will be healthier and our condition will be better. So when we practise Qigong, we must do Fang Song and Shou Gong, keeping our mouths closed and our weight on our legs.

Fang Song放鬆

When we are beginning to practise Qigong, we should first do our warm up and then afterwards we need to do Fang Song three times. “Fang放” means “let go”, “Song鬆” means “loosen up”. This movement is the same performed the same way as Shou Gong 收功. We should stand still with our legs shoulder-width apart, slowly raise up two hands either side of our body with the palms open and thumbs open. Opening the palms and the thumb relates to the Laogong 勞宫穴, and Hegu合谷穴 points so we can gather more Qi. As we bring the hands in front of the face we turn the palms so they face us and we slowly drop them down passing the face, shoulders, chest, abdomen and finally coming to rest in front of the Dantian. We repeat this a further two time, so we do it three times in total. Three times is a good number as it helps us to relax before we do our forms.

As we raise up the hands, the Qi will rise up the Du Mai 督脉 from the back. The Du Mai runs from the Huiyin 會陰 point which is between the legs, up the spine, over the top of the head to the mouth which inside the Yinjiao齦交穴 point. As the hands drop down from the face to the Dantian, the Qi will run down the Ren Mai 任脉, from the mouth under the lower lip Cheng Jiang 承漿穴 ponit, to the chest down to the Huiyin point. So we can see that it is important these two channels, the Du and Ren Mai must be clear. So the Qi will flow better.
