45 Minute Core Champion Video Library

Live on Wednesdays 07:30-08:15 CET

45 minute Core Champion Classes

These sessions are based on Tao Yin, the oldest recorded form of Qi Gong. It's the forerunner of Pilates. We work seated or laying on the mat, focusing on strengthening and stretching the power house of abdomen, lower back, hips and psoas. We always complete with a nourishing meditation.

These classes are accessible with the Qi Studio Membership. You can join live on ZOOM and watch the replays. Take a look below at the library that already contains more than 90 videos.

“It's so worth getting out of bed for, and then you've done something really nice for yourself before breakfast. A great start of the day!”

~ Jannie, Freelance Trainer and Mediator
