What Students are Saying About Qigong
(names abbreviated for privacy)

"Life is so fast and hectic for so many people these days - we need to take some time for ourselves to re-energize! Mind over matter- the Chinese have been doing all of this for so long they have to know something we don’t! I have learned that we have more control than we think we do and energy is the key!” - KP, Nurse

"As one who has spent literally hundreds of hours in graduate, post-graduate and CEU classes, I want to complement the Qigong instructor for the class was well balanced and organized.  She has a personality and talent that is outstanding. I would recommend this course to anyone who is ready to impact their own health through a gentle and revitalizing practice.” - LG, Retired Physical Therapist

"I have cancer and through Qigong I find myself able to cope, relax, calm & re-energize." -KK

"I had been experiencing Tinnitus for more than 20 years. Learning Qigong from Deborah has help me to relax and my hearing has improved." HW

"It’s wonderful for relieving stress and for building energy. For 20 or 30 minutes a day you are in a serene and peaceful atmosphere. We could all use that." - NS

"I’m thankful for you having touched my life, and so honored that you gave to me such a powerful gift. The power of mind and spirit is truly an amazing and awesome thing and through you I feel that I have been reacquainted with an almost forgotten long lost friend -- myself.  Where there was sadness, loss or pain, there is now joy, peace and freedom. Where there was weakness and longing, there is now strength, direction and power. I now have this almost euphoric feeling of peace and inner strength that I’ve only felt once before my life. Every day is something I look forward to. I no longer have the burden of “loss” and depression that had almost consumed my every moment. I sleep better, I feel fantastic." - BM

"For me Qigong is an affirmation that we are more than just physical beings and I am touched by the emotional; and spiritual aspects of Qigong practice.  After doing m Qigong practice I feel my spirit is uplifted and my heart feels more joy in life.  As one who suffers from chronic fatigue, Qigong gives me a subtle yet very real energy boost! It’s not like the “hyper surge of energy” one gets from too many coffee lattes, but a powerful yet gentle surge of subtle energy from the universe.  It is much more calming and energizing than I could ever imagine! I look forward to taking Qigong Level 2 and Tai Chi." - JC, Social Worker

"I have learned how to work with energy in a way that has increased and enriched my well being.  My moods, emotions, feelings, quality of life are more grounded.  My movement, agility, flexibility is increased and stronger.  My problematic pain in my knees, low back and neck is almost non-existent.  My energy is increased, along with mental clarity." - M

"I have been able to regain energy and Deborah played a big roll in that recovery." - LM

"I took different specialty Qigong classes. From “Turtle Qigong” I have learned a wonderful slowing of the breath.   Intermediate & Advance Qigong helped me maintain my energy to keep the level of peace and confidence.  All these classes I have taken has helped to give me a tool to prevent illness, restore and increase energy, peace in my daily living, strengthening my health and expanding my inner life. I am very grateful." - MP

"I have acute Tinnitus in both ears and through Qigong I have less ringing in my ears. Through very heavy exposure to asbestos, in my military years in the 60’s, I now have some plural thickening, scaring and blunting in my lungs. With Qigong I have my breathing under control and feel more lung capacity to breathe better. Qigong calms my anxiety. It gives me the ability to lower my heart rate when I seek and need calmness. Qigong practice has become an enjoyable part of my life. It mentally and physically rejuvenates and balances me". - LB
