Qi Gong workshops

Transitions into Winter & Spring
Qi Gong workshop with Treya Marie Forlenza
Series continues on Sunday mornings 10am-12noon
January 20th & March 24th

This workshop is a great opportunity to move into the new year in a healthy and relaxed way! In January we will continue our focus on Qi Gong movements especially helpful for the cold and damp weather of the Winter season. Emphasis will be on warming and nurturing the Kidney function, which is connected to the health of lower back and legs. Qi Gong also enhances general health and vitality and reduces stress, while integrating body & mind.

In March we will switch the focus to supporting our bodies, as we transition into Spring...... a season of more light and warmth.

You are welcome to join in if you have not attended previous classes.

Classes are held @ Soma Yoga studio,1423 NW 70th St

Transitions into Spring and Summer

Qi Gong workshop with Treya Marie Forlenza
               a series of  two Sunday mornings 10am-12noon
                        May 20th and June 10th 

Dear friends,
          I continue to get requests to include Qi Gong in my teaching offerings and have found an option that I think can work for those who might be interested. As I continue my personal practice and teaching of Qi Gong I come more to appreciate what a profound art it is!
          Subtle and deep, it can be practiced by people of all ages and activity levels with many health benefits. In this series of two 2 hour classes we will focus on Qi gong movements that help to support our bodies as the seasons change from colder darker weather into lighter and warmer days.

         The first hour will be dedicated to learning and refining various Qi Gong movements to deepen our understanding and practice. The second hour will be a guided flowing practice session to support our experiential knowing and somatic learning. My intention is to establish an on-going Qi Gong study group to encourage and support home practice that will meet once every 4-8 weeks. I will discuss this further will the group during these first two pilot classes.

Classes will be held @ Soma Yoga studio.
Beginners and experienced practitioners are welcome.

You can attend one or both sessions
Cost: $40 per class
Discount: register for both sessions by  May 20th.....  $70 for both
You can sign up in class by e-mail or phone 206-706-0069

On Qi Gong....

Dear students,


          Some of you have asked me to explain more about Qi Gong and why I practice and teach it. Being a teacher of somatic education, instructing in Yoga / movement & meditation and practicing therapeutic body work........ I'm very interested in health and well being. I have noticed over the many years of my own practice how these different body/mind modalities have affected my health and impacted my life. The continued study of Qi Gong and Tai Chi has played a very positive role in my development as a teacher and practitioner. I've noticed significant improvements in my health, mental and emotional clarity and energy level. To my surprise and delight my understanding and practice of yoga also deepened. It was this awareness that inspired me to call my classes "INTEGRATED MOVEMENT PRACTICES". I realized that I was drawing from many of the different arts that I have studied in the teaching of all of my classes. I hopes this creates  a little context before I go on to talk more about QI Gong.
          Qi Gong has been practiced in China for thousands of years and continues to be a popular method for self -healing and disease prevention. It is not by accident that it is becoming increasingly popular in the west among people of all ages and lifestyles. Qi Gong practice integrates body and mind and has many benefits physically, mentally and energetically. It can help one to slow down thinking and calm the mind reducing stress and anxiety. It is a form of meditation which incorporates both graceful flowing movement and rest or stillness. It has many health benefits including helping to lower blood pressure, improving balance and agility and also promotes deeper breathing and better circulation. Perhaps the most impressive benefit of Qi Gong practice is that it supports and bolsters the immune system and we all know that this is our first defense against all disease [prevention] and our biggest and most potent weapon to fight it!
          Qi Gong is gentle and graceful and can be practiced by everyone, young and old alike. It is appropriate for those who are fit as well as those who are out of shape. It can also be beneficial and safe for many persons who are fighting illness and disabilities. It is precisely because of its gentle and quiet approach that it is often over-looked or under-estimated. Especially in this culture where there is a bias toward exercise which is difficult and intense. There is a false belief that the harder we work the more we gain. However in this fast paced and over stimulated world, it is very important to nurture and restore ourselves. This is exactly what Qi gong helps us to do! Relax deeply so we can re-charge and access our natural healing abilities which allow our body and mind to be calm, clear and vibrant.

Free event....all are welcome!

You are invited to join together to practice Qi Gong and sit in meditation on the morning of the solstice.
Astronomically Winter Solstice marks the beginning of the shortening of nights and the lengthening of days, so this is the longest night of the year!
Solstice derives from Latin sol (sun) and sistere (to stand still). It is a potent time for quietude and reflection as well as celebration, as we transition into Winter and the gradual return of light!
This is a great opportunity to take some "TIME OUT" in this busy holiday season to support each other in sitting with vitality!

Approximate schedule:

Please arrive at 8am to set up for sitting.
We will start with 10 minutes Qi Gong
Then we will chant the Heart Sutra
1st round of sitting 15-20 minutes
followed by 20 minutes Qi Gong
2nd round of sitting 15-20 minutes

Afterwards tea & treats will be served and there will be time to hang out together.

All are welcome.... Please bring a Zafu / meditation cushion (if you have one)
There are plenty of sticky mats & blankets at studio for padding under sitting cushions
Chairs are available there if you want to use one
I will have extras cushions there if you don't have one

Please feel free to bring a friend or family member.....no experience is necessary
Give a reply to let me know if you will attend, so I have an approximate head count.

In-Town Retreat

Saturday, November 5th & Sunday, November 6th

Two morning intensive classes: 9:30am - 12noon

Relaxing the shoulders and opening the chest !

Let's move into the cooler weather and the holidays with ease!

Join me in a Somatic education approach to health and vitality.
Wake up your body-mind in a fun and functional way....... without overdoing it!


This workshop will include Feldenkrais,Yoga & Qi Gong.........
Saturday morning we will explore this theme with
Feldenkrais (Awareness through movement ) & Qi Gong
Sunday morning we will revisit the same theme with Yoga asana

Saturday morning November 5th: Feldenkrais & Qi Gong
9:30am-12noon
We will learn to release holding patterns in our neck and shoulders with gentle and playful movements. Building on this theme we will also explore movement to help us to relax and open our chest. These movement explorations will improve posture and increase mobility in the neck, shoulders and upper back. This helps us to reduce overall body tension and breath more deeply. Deep relaxation and breathing nourish and calm our whole nervous system and are a perfect antidote to the busy holiday season and cold weather!

This session is open to everyone and appropriate for those with pain or injury.

Sunday morning November 6th: Yoga (all levels)
9:30am-12noon
Through Yoga postures we will investigate the same focus of releasing shoulder tension to improving flexibility and alignment in the neck, spine and shoulder girdle. This will include spinal elongation, twists and gentle back-bends.
We will also incorporate yogic breathing exercises to increase awareness, relaxation and reduce stress.
This is a great opportunity to refine and deepen your Yoga practice.

This session is open to students with varied levels of Yoga experience.

You can join in for one or both sessions.

Early registration discount for both sessions (full workshop)
Paid by Wednesday November 2nd: $90
fee per session: $50
