Using movement, meditation and sound Thalbert Allen will guide your awareness to the Earth Element. Representing the season of late summer, this element is essentially feminine and primarily nurturing. Earth allows and supports living processes and is the fulcrum around which all the elements turn. In this workshop using Earth and Monkey Chi Kung forms, postures, and sounds we look to support and ground energy within the body with a focus on organs of Stomach and Spleen. A strong Earth element leads to stability, balance and a positive, confident, and compassionate energy.

Elemental Chi Kung Is a progressive approach to chi kung that incorporates classic styles and philosophies with modern bodymind and energy concepts. The approach explores body and chi awareness as a way to deepen into our internal chi flow through movement, stillness, meditation, and breath. A creative space is sought to allow our essential nature to express itself and bring about transformation to an innermost reality.

Chi Kung movements are simple. Each action aims to move Chi in a specific way. The movements often take their inspiration from the movement of animals and nature and can look quite beautiful. Sometimes the movements follow energy channels in the body and sometimes they orient around internal organs or parts of the body. The aim in all the movements is to increase the flow of Chi through the mind and body.
