In the north-west of China, high above the Himalayas, are the mystical Kunlun Mountains. Nearly1700 years ago a hermit named Si Dao An (the Peaceful Way) observed the movements of the many wild geese that haunt the area and began to incorporate these bending, stretching, twisting and fluttering techniques into a health-enhancing routine called the Dayan Gong or Wild Goose Qigong.
Since then over 30 generations have taught this skill to the world. The 27th generation inheritor, Grandmaster Yang Mei-Jun (who died in 2002 aged 107) was the first to open the Dayan Gong outside China. Julian Wilde is proud to be part of that lineage through his teacher Master Tse Wei Jing and is the only authorised senior instructor of the Kunlun Mountains Qigong in the East of England.
Qigong, pronounced chi kung, literally translates as working with qi, our natural energy. Qigong combines movement, posture, breathing and alignment of acupuncture points to create beautiful dance-like routines that are fascinating to watch and help to promote a healthy flow of qi around the body. Regular training is a very positive way to spend some time, opening us up to nature and Tao (the way), making both body and mind stronger, more flexible, better balanced, alleviating many of the ailments that can prevent us from enjoying our life to the full. It's no exaggeration to say that the regular practice of qigong can transform you! Our qigong sessions start with a warm up and stretch (warm up routine courtesy of Shaolin Master Wu Chun Yuen) and the practice of sets of single exercises such as the Balancing Gong, Healthy Living Gong etc.
It's almost like taking a holiday from the world for a couple of hours and we love each other's company.

In today's tense and frantic world the Wild Goose qigong is probably the most effective stress-reducer we can award ourselves and with regular practice the results will speak for themselves. If you're looking for gentle exercise without competition or any martial content then qigong is probably what you're looking for.
