Rielle’s Tai Chi & Qi Gong Journey

​

Rielle Friedrich started her Qi Gong and Tai Chi journey in 1980 in Germany. With different teachers she has been studying various Qi Gong and Tai Chi styles. Rielle has been teaching since 1983; in 2001 she opened the “Zen Tao Tai Chi”  school, where she runs regular classes in Paeroa, New Zealand.

Rielle works as a health practitioner at her own practice “Health in Motion”, Clinic for Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, Acupuncture and Physiotherapy.

Qi Gong is a way to improve and maintain our physical, mental and spiritual health. It is a form of exercise and vital part of  Traditional Chinese Medicine. Its roots go back thousands of years; and different practices have developed according to the needs of times.

Until early 1900 Qi Gong exercises have been kept secret in China. Now various styles are taught openly worldwide, and research has confirmed its many benefits. Regular Qi Gong practise can support our wellbeing and health, and can help to overcome anxiety and stress of daily living. Qi Gong is an excellent method to self-regulate. When practising Qi Gong our body is relaxed, the breathing calm, movements are slow and our mind focusing on the flow, expansion and cultivation of Qi.
