Bluegum Qigong - New Name, New Look!
Same Great Classes
We’re excited to announce that ‘Qigong for a Healthy Life’ has had a fabulous refresh and is now called Bluegum Qigong! The classes are the same, just with a new name and logo that has more significance for teacher Adrienne. Adrienne was led to Tai Chi and Qigong in 2003 after having severe rheumatoid arthritis for 35 years. Qigong is a powerful system of ancient Chinese health therapy and is a way of working with your life energy, Qi (chi). It stimulates Qi through breathing and gentle movements, resulting in a deep feeling of relaxation and harmony that assists the body in health recovery.
Adrienne decided on the name Bluegum Qigong because of the strength and grounding that can come from trees. The new name and logo references the Southern Hemisphere, where Bluegum Qigong is practised. Adrienne explains “ As I use trees symbolically in all my classes it seemed very fitting and eucalypts are so uniquely Australian too”. The goose symbolises the Da Yan Wild Goose Qigong set that Adrienne studied and practices while the Yin Yang symbol is an ancient symbol showing two forces that complement and balance each other, which is central to all Tai Chi and Qigong practices.
If you would like to experience Qigong for yourself or find out more contact Adrienne on: 0428 553 317.
Facilitated by People With Disability Australia (PWDA)
The Place is proud to be the first community organisation in NSW to take part in the NSW Device Bank Pilot Program, supporting more people in our community to get connected and build confidence online. Through the program, we helped allocate 30 refurbished laptops to local people in our community, including seniors, carers, people with disability and people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. Participants receive 12 months of free data, digital skills training and IT Support to help them make the most of their device. Delivered by NSW Telco Authority in partnership with WorkVentures and Good Things Australia, the NSW Device Bank Pilot Program is part of the NSW Government’s Digital Inclusion Strategy. The program helps bridge the digital divide by giving people access to the essential technology, connectivity and support needed in today’s digital world. We’re incredibly grateful for this opportunity for our local community and want to thank everyone who made it possible.
