The Approach

The Urban Monk represents a way of being in the here and now, where the focus is not on achieving extraordinary abilities or states at some point in the future. The path of the Urban Monk leads to harmony in mind, body, and spirit, inner calm amidst the busy modern world, and a life in harmony with the world around us. No escapism. Life always and only takes place in the present moment. The ancient art of Qigong offers a path to balance, harmony, growth, and development. Within a framework of ancient Eastern wisdom, modern insights, and a deep practice of the various facets of Qigong, we cultivate robust vitality, a quiet, attentive, and clear mind, and an open, joyful, and compassionate heart. This fosters a richer, more fulfilling experience of life. In cultivating ourselves this way, we also contribute to the world around us. Firmly grounded, living from the heart, with clear focus and sharp intuition, we can approach life's challenges with poise and serenity.

Qigong is all about reconnecting. Reconnecting the mind and the body through the breath. Reconnecting with spirit and the heart. And reconnecting with other human beings, nature and this vast universe around us.
