Taoist Walking Retreat

This retreat will present both foundation gong methods and walking methods.
The effortless gait of Taoist walking is both graceful and efficient. It stills the mind, nourishes the body and cultivates vitality. There are many methods of Taoist walking, Xing Qiao. They all are dependent on the foundation of internal practice. Xing Qiao walking is a method of carrying your practice into other activities and is one of the four activities of cultivation: walking, standing, sitting, and lying down.
