Qigong is pronounced "chee gong" and may also be spelled chi gong, chikung, or qikung. "Qi" or "chi" means vital energy and "gong" or "kung" means work, so "qigong" means an exercise for cultivating energy.
There are many different types of Qigong that have developed in China over the centuries. The tradition of Dayan Qigong, called "Wild Goose" Qigong in the West, is one of ten systems recommended by the Chinese National Athletics and Martial Arts Association. The major philosophical schools of China: Taoism, Buddhism, Confucianism, as well as the Traditional Chinese Martial Arts and Traditional Chinese Medicine have produced five major schools of Qigong. These different styles of Qigong place emphasis on different methods of practice but all Qigong incorporates movement or posture, breathing practices and finally concentration or regulation of the mind.
The regular practice of Qigong should produce a calm and contented mind, help the internal organs to function normally, strengthen the bones, joints and muscles and promote a long, healthy and happy life. It is a safe and effective tool for self-healing and health maintenance. In the longer term it is also a tool for personal and spiritual development, training for the body and the heart.
Grandmaster Tse has included the Kungfu skill in the Centre’s Qigong syllabus because its strong energy helps offset the effects of our largely sedentary way of life. Although the style has its roots in Northern Shaolin Kungfu, its branches are in Traditional Chinese Opera, as Master Tse's teacher's teacher was a famous opera star named Wang Ping. Chinese opera performers were trained in Traditional Chinese Martial Arts; stars like Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan were trained in the Opera. The style was developed to suit the requirements of stage performance, while retaining its traditional integrity. It comprises bare hand (or fist) forms and weapons forms, including straight sword, broadsword, spear and staff.
