Step-by-Step to Good Health with Dayan Qigong

Three weeks into the exercise and I just realised that there are many types (not just 4 or 5) of Qigong (qi gong, chi kung, or chi gung) that are practised worldwide : b.

At the time of writing this post (20 April 2015), I am into mid way of the 1st 64 forms of Dayan Qigong, also known as Wild Goose Qigong. As the name suggests, these graceful movement forms mimic the wild goose’s activities so that there are lots of wings flapping and body turning.

Still struggling to remember the steps ... so many aspects to look out for ... what to do with fingers/ hands/ arms/ legs/ head, when to turn, when to breathe in/ out. 

Can you imagine how excited I was when I came across a YouTube video which demonstrates the Dayan Qigong 1st 64 forms with instructions in English displayed  on the screen! Also, the quality of the video is superb – not shaky, not fuzzy, not intermittent – so that I have been using it often to recall and practise the Dayan Qigong movements.





The website, Wild Goose Qigong – UK, is a wonderful resource as well. It has useful tips for me (beginner), especially on the Correct Principles of Wild Goose Qigong, and offers suggestion on which areas to work on as one progress to next level. Better still, it lists the step-by-step instructions in English on the website. Love it - for my easy reference. Yay!
