The Ba Duan Jin or Eight Pieces of Brocade (Silk) is one of the most popular and most recognisable qigong sets. It is practiced all over the world for its remarkable health benefits. This form is renowned for relieving stress, toning the body, stretching joints and muscles,  boosting vitality and so much more.

This is a nine week course which covers all the movements of the complete Ba Duan Jin Qigong set. It is necessary to complete the Silk Reeling Exercises before you can progress on to this course.

Each week you will be sent an instructional video where Sifu Hepple will guide you through the various Ba Duan Jin exercises. There is a mirrored image view and a reverse view of each one, to help you practice. You may also send videos of yourself practicing to Sifu Hepple, to ensure correct position and alignment.
