Pa Tuan Chin is a C12th A.D. Qigong Form which was
developed by the Chinese general Yueh Fei, who was also well
versed in traditional Chinese Medicine, Calligraphy and
Martial Arts. This Form is composed of eight different
exercises which provide to the practitioner a silken like quality,
hence its English name, ‘The Eight Pieces of Brocade.’ It has
been suggested by many scholars that it is based on the
exercise system that Bodhidharma gave to the Shaolin monks
eight centuries earlier. Each of these flowing and gentle
exercises has been designed to strengthen and re-energise a
specific part or organ of the body. Overall, the combined
exercises, known as the Form, also assist in improving the
practitioner’s physical structure, breathing and link to
universal Chi.
Paul will teach this Form using the original sequence that Yueh
Fei developed
