BA DUAN JIN

Eight-Section Brocade (Ba Duan Jin): 

 

The Eight-Section Brocade (Ba Duan Jin) is a form of Qigong, not merely a set of physical exercises (gymnastics). The mental component (Xin Fa) is very important, as is breathing.

It is crucial to practice progressively under the guidance of a professional instructor. First, focus on the physical movements (Xing), then gradually incorporate the breathing, and finally, the mental component (Xin Fa). This practice serves to strengthen the body and improve overall health.
