  • Practice and Services:
"Self-Empowered Health Qigong/Tai Chi" is an organization devoted to empowering people to heal themselves through the time-tested "technology" of Qigong and Tai Chi. As our society struggles with overwhelming healthcare costs and the growing de-humanization of the healthcare "industry", people everywhere need easily accessible, easy to learn self-care tools to prevent disease. "Self-Empowered Health Qigong/Tai Chi" exists for this purpose; to carry the simple, yet profound, self-care practices of Qigong and Tai Chi to organizations, communities, to everyone looking for an easy and effective way to take control of their own health and well-being. Our goal is to pass along the principles of Qigong in a non-esoteric and user-friendly manner to as many organizations and individuals as possible; corporations, schools, non-profits, healthcare facilities, community groups, etc. We teach the principles of Qigong, rather than stress a particular lineage (though respecting these). We teach only Medical Qigong exercises and easy forms of Therapeutic Tai Chi (Tai Chi for health enhancement vs. a "martial" approach). Practices taught include modern forms like "4 Minute Fitness," "Tai Chi Easy," as well as traditional Medical Qigong forms like "Vitality Method," "Marrow Washing," "Tendon Changing", etc. (please see the "Services" page of our website for complete descriptions--www.selfempoweredhealth.com).

Feel free to contact "Self-Empowered Health Qigong/Tai Chi" for more information on how we can help your organization (or you as an individual) to become equipped and empowered through learning the simple, yet profound practices of Qigong and Tai Chi.
