I enrolled in the Qigong class because I heard that it was good for balance. I had no idea that it would have such a profound effect on my health.
I have been a migraine sufferer for thirty years. After seven months of practicing Qigong, I am off
daily medication, and my headaches are much fewer and less intense. Daily practice
has added energy and a sense of well being to my life. And yes, my balance is improving too!

Qigong is a practice of balance and health. Gentle, graceful movements and deliberate, focused mindwork restore balance to your body, your mind, your sense of self. From this focused practice, all varieties of healing can occur: lowered blood pressure to less fatigue, milder mood swings to greater capacity for compassion. The wisdom of Chinese Medicine informs and infuses the practice of qigong at all levels.
Soaring Crane Qigong has a strong presence in the Pacific Northwest and a vibrant, active community in Seattle. One of the most popular qigong forms in China, Soaring Crane is a graceful and comprehensive practice well-suited to those seeking prevention or recovery, from diseases, injuries, or the tolls of daily life. The form looks like tai-chi, feels like deep meditation and delivers the benefits of acupuncture to a home-based, personal practice.
Two Dog Yoga studio hosts a thriving qigong community, and welcomes those who would like to learn the practice. Level One classes bring beginners into the practice, accommodating many schedules and learning styles with weekday, evening and weekend workshops. Practice Sessions scheduled throughout the week allow ongoing qigong students to refine their form and take in the richness of group practice. Special workshops, outdoor practice sessions at local parks and community gatherings round out the experience of Qigong at Two Dog.
