Certified Qigong Instructor Martha Hurwitz initially tried qigong as an antidote to cancer treatment. Drawn to its preventive promise, she was surprised by the insights, stability and day-to-day health her qigong practice delivered. Martha is a former rock climber, sometimes dancer and longtime writer with a background in education. She brings an understanding of movement and appreciation of learning styles to her teaching of the Soaring Crane form. She lives in Seattle with her husband and two young children.
Qigong is a choreography of movement, mind-work and meditation. Influenced by the long-standing wisdom of Chinese Medicine, qigong restores physical, emotional and spiritual balance. Soaring Crane Qigong is a graceful and comprehensive form well-suited to those seeking prevention or recovery, from diseases, injuries or the tolls of daily life. One of the most popular qigong forms in China, Soaring Crane has a strong presence in the Pacific NW and a vibrant, active community in Seattle. Participants will learn two short Remedy Routines, the comprehensive Five Routines and qigong theory. No special clothing necessary. Focused mind-work deems this form a contra-indication for those with schizophrenia, bi-polar disorder or comparable mental disability.
