Qigong in the fairy grove evokes a mesmerizing blend of ancient practice and mythical landscape. Qigong, a centuries-old Chinese art that combines meditation, controlled breathing and movement is renowned for its ability to harmonize the body, mind and spirit. When practiced in a fairy grove, the art form takes on an ethereal quality.
The fusion of Qigong’s fluid postures with the grove’s serene ambiance inspires a transformative experience where time seems to stand still, and the boundaries between the inner world and the outer landscape blur. For the individual and the collective, such a setting enriches this somatic practice, offering a unique path to inner peace and rejuvenation. Open your heart and feel it for yourself!
MEET CRISTINA
CRISTINA CORRIERI is a Qigong, Yoga, and Meditation and Mindfulness instructor. She rediscovered a passion for mindful movement while struggling with health issues in her early 30s. Her daily mindful movement practice brought her back in tune with her body and helped her to navigate a path back to balance and well being. This journey inspired her to become certified to teach both Qigong and Yoga to help others reconnect and find healing through somatic practices.
Cristina’s teaching style has been described as joyous, accommodating and inclusive.
When not teaching or practicing herself, Cristina can most likely be found outside, enjoying nature.
We Belong to the Light
The grove’s natural energy, suffused with magic and tranquility, amplifies the meditative aspects of Qigong, allowing practitioners to experience a deeper connection with nature and themselves.
