The Power of Relaxation

We will help you prove to yourself that tension and stress actually make you weaker. We will then show you ways to rid yourself of this forever and prove how being relaxed doubles your strength instantly.

The Keys to Greater Vitality

Building on lessons of relaxation we will hand you the keys to greater vitality by revealing special Daoist 'Dao Yin' breathing techniques.

Moving with Stillness

Learn to focus your mind and develop incredible concentration through mindful exercise that promotes greater calm and harmony between mind and body.

Raise the Tempo

True fitness requires that you ask more of your body than you have done before. Daoists in China realised this thousands of years ago and developed exercises that are safe yet challenging for all people, no matter how fit or unfit you are when you walk through the door. These are guaranteed to exercise your heart and lungs, burn fat and tone and strengthen your muscles so that you have more energy available to you at all times.

Qi - Your Vital Force

Qi is the energy that flows through the universe and all living beings, including you!
You will be introduced to the natural energy within your body that has always been available to you. Exercising and utilising your Qi is the very essence of Lishi and brings greater benefits than you can realise.

Self-Defense that is fun and simple

The principles of Lishi are very effective as a system of self-defense and step-by-step you will gain greater coordination and confidence by working with a partner to test what you are learning in a supportive environment.

 

Once you experience the benefits of Lishi, you will want to make "feeling fit, healthy and energised" your natural way. We will spend time learning and practising exercises so that they become a part of you and you can draw on the benefits whenever you want.
