Art Chi - St-Eugne-De-Guigues is a well-established school that offers a range of classes in Tai Chi, Qi Gong, and martial arts in the beautiful town of Saint-Eugne-de-Guigues. The school follows the Stvanovitch Method, which focuses on developing a deep connection with the body's energy, known as Chi.
For beginners, the school offers classes on how to perceive Chi with the hands and connect to the Tantien, the body's energetic centre. Students learn to relax their bodies to allow Chi to flow more freely and practice 11 traditional health exercises (Qi Gong) to improve breathing, flexibility, and sensitivity to Chi.
Intermediate students continue their journey by learning how to mobilize Chi within the body. Through a series of internal exercises, students sharpen their focus, calm their minds, and allow Chi to flow more fluidly. They also begin to learn the 24-step Tai Chi form, a stylized sequence of combat movements that combine stillness and motion.
For advanced students, the school offers techniques to expand and direct Chi within the body. Students have the opportunity to learn rare forms such as the 108 and 127 postures and delve deeper into the practice of Tai Ji Quan for personal enjoyment and wellness.
Art Chi - St-Eugne-De-Guigues believes that everyone can perceive and work with Chi to improve their health and well-being. The school emphasizes the importance of the Tantien as a focal point for energy and teaches students how to use precise muscle work to harness their Chi effectively. Breathwork and gentle internal massage techniques further enhance the practice and help students connect with their vital life force.
The school's instructors are dedicated to teaching a progressive curriculum based on the Stvanovitch Method. Classes are offered in various formats, including workshops, weekly classes, and intensive retreats at the Centre Pierre Boogaerts. Students have the opportunity to explore different aspects of Chi mobilization, from basic energy flows to advanced techniques and forms like the Tai Chi family Yang 24, 108, and 127 postures.
