Welcome to attend the class and try gentle flowing movement next week. Your first visit is free.

Please read the attached healing stories from Sandy's students.

Venue: 19 Templetons Road, Aidanfield/Hillmorton

Qigong means exercise with energy (Qi). It is an ancient holistic Chinese therapy, great for healing and also an advanced preventative natural medicine.

It is the foundation to Tai Chi, but relatively simpler than Tai Chi.

We gather the universal energy (Qi) to nourish our body, mind and spirit and increase our energy.

The gentle flowing meditative movement and secret sounds improve our health, pelvic floor muscles, core, spine, flexibility, posture, immunity, organs, relaxation and inner joy.

Qigong can also release PMT, hay fever, stress and anxiety, heal back pain and lessen arthritis.

The class is broken up with Qigong theory and sort meditation.

Poll: What could the Christchurch City Council fund if it didn't have to pay GST on rates?

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

Christchurch mayor Phil Mauger says GST on rates, currently taken by central government, would be better spent locally.

The comments follow an Infometrics analysis that found over $1.1 billion of rates revenue nationwide was collected by the Government in 2022 as GST.

According to Infometrics, $88.5m of that came from Christchurch city ratepayers. It would be enough to save the Christ Church Cathedral from ruin; restore the Dux de Lux seven times over; cover both the Art Centre and Orana Wildlife Park’s request for regular public funding for over 26 years; contribute to light rail in Greater Christchurch; or get the South Library rebuild completed.
