Course description

AI CHI (In Japaneese for HEART ENERGY)

Ai Chi developed by Jun Konno, combines principles of Thai Chi, Shiatsu (stretching of meridians) and Watsu. It is a warm water based strengthening and relaxation sequence of movements performed to soft music. It starts with simple breathing, builds up to bigger movements and finally involves the whole body co-ordination.

The big range of benefits that Ai chi provides include; mind & body relaxation, increased balance, pain management, improved range of motion & general mobility, strengthening of core muscles, increase metabolism and blood circulation, mental alertness etc. It also contributes to reduction of stress, insomnia, depression, fatigue, anxiety and encourages the body into the state of relaxed awareness.

It is open and beneficial as well to complete beginners, people with physical issues, as to practitioners and therapists of other forms of body work on land or in the water.
