Qigong 12 OCT with Klyti Green Mondays in Oct hosted by Food Is Free Inc.

Venue & ticket info

Food Is Free Inc. proudly hosts Qigong with Klyti Green every Monday in Oct. In traditional Chinese philosophy and medicine, "qi" (pronounced "chee") refers to the vital life force or energy that flows through everything in the universe, including the human body. Qigong uses gentle movement, breathwork and guided meditation to stimulate and regulate the flow of energy and blood around the body. These practices allow areas of stagnation within the body, mind and spirit to be revitalised and refreshed. The form of Qigong Klyti practices is suitable for all bodies and capabilities. Its gentle and informative nature make it an incredibly inclusive activity. Participating in Qigong classes within group settings is known to bring a deep level of connection between participants. This deepened sense of connection breeds kindness towards oneself and others. Transform your Mondays to unlock peace, wellbeing, balance and re-energize yourself with the teachings of Ballarat's own Klyti Green, (bio below), in a safe & non-judgmental space.

BIO: Introducing your teacher, Klyti Green... Klyti first experienced the transformational effect of Qigong while improving her physical, emotional and mental health and wellbeing with local Ballarat OpenSky Qigong Practitioner, Howard Evans. Upon experiencing the transformative power of this form of Qigong Klyti felt inspired to become a practitioner herself to share the joys of this practice. She has since studied with the founder of OpenSky Qigong, Marg Wyatt. Klyti says, “I know what it feels like to experience stress, tension and anxiety. I have experienced post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), interrupted sleep and what workplace stress can look like.” Based on her personal experience of the transformative effect of practising OpenSky Qigong, especially in relation to these symptoms, Klyti leads a Qigong practice which focuses on personal relaxation and rejuvenation. Klyti has run Qigong classes within the mental health and community health sector and has seen first hand the impact that these classes have on personal development and growth, alongside increasing the ability for participants to relax and be themselves. Through OpenSky Qigong, Klyti has experienced personal growth and transformation especially around being a mother, releasing trauma and relating to friends, family and colleagues in a meaningful way. Her greatest wish is to share the practice of Qigong with you. Klyti has taught Qigong before at Barkly Square for our friends at Ballarat East Neighbourhood House. We are thrilled to have her running our sessions!
