    I'm delighted and honoured to be the first one to do this class of your course. I'm not reeling silk these days but I am spinning it. It is so wonderful to do more of this 'variation' of my other silk reeling. Sedona is amazingly beautiful -- the background looks like a painted set ! For your generosity in teaching us, the care you take with location and content, for your humour ,skill and kindness, I thank you so very much.

    Nick you absolute wizard you have outdone yourself. This is my favourite routine ever (and I’ve done almost all of yours!). Perfect combo of flow, stretch and breathing. The location and the birdsong are the icing on the top. Kudos!!

    My partner and I have done this one twice now during our vacation here on beautiful Maui. It’s helping with jet lag and other changes in routine. It’s actually the first time I’ve managed to get my significant other to participate in one of your videos, and before I knew it she was telling all the parents of small children in our large family group that it would be great for the kids too. She’s right! I have done number two in this series, and the third one just dropped. Doing these practices with you inspired me to sign up for classes back home in PA. As soon as we get back I’m doing a summer series of four classes with a local teacher. Thanks so much.

    How privileged we are to be able to join this course. Nick- your generosity is second to none! Brilliant start to day or wind down at the end, and suitable for all levels. Yes, Sedona feels like another Power Spot for sure, which adds an extra dimension to the practice. And did I mention how cool your shoes and jumper are!!!!:)

    Today is day 5 of covid. My first time. Its been horrendous but I knew I needed to move the stagnation. Could do the first ten mins of the class, had a good lie down and came back to it. Back to bed now! Feeling better with the qi gong, if lightheaded. Thanks again Nick.

  • @user-zz4uc7lu4m

    Another wonderful flow, thank you, Nick. And I've really enjoyed the FIT and FLOW classes.. It's nice to practice "in community" with others. The FLOW class is especially sweet with a nice amount of breath/meditation time. But FIT is also great; not as physically challengig as I thought it might be, but a gentle focus on the more physical aspects. Together, they make a great set of Qi building practices.

  • @jenniferreid7454

    Thanks so much for all your wonderful videos. I started practicing qi gong during the pandemic on the advice of my acupuncturist, as I was in chronic pain and stress. Your classes got me through the height of grad school when I was feeling the worst, so you have my gratitude and so much respect for all your hard work!

    Enjoying your classes and the energy with which you teach them. Do have any suggestions for alternative movements for pulling down the heavens for those of us with shoulder injury/frozen shoulder? It is too painful for me as yet to rotate and I can't knock on the door of life while swinging either. Thank you.
