Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming teaches this classic set of Medical Qigong for Health and Healing. Like the Eight Brocades, the Five Animal Sports, or Frolics, are one of the most ancient and popular sets of medical qigong exercises. Passed down for nearly 2,000 years, they are an effective, fun, and sometimes humorous way to energize the entire body and promote healing. By imitating the movements and spirit of the Tiger, Deer, Bear, Monkey, and Bird, a practitioner can build their strength and longevity inside and out, and enjoy excellent health.

Experience a private lesson with one of the world's foremost masters of qigong as Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming offers detailed instruction, starting with a Qigong stretching and warming up section.
