Shibashi from the Qi Gong tradition
Qi Gong is a form of meditation in movement.
The Qi Gong tradition can be traced back about 2500 years, but is believed to be older still.
Shibashi is a series of 18 exercises taken from the vast collection of Qi Gong exercises.
Qi Gong in Video
There are many videos about Shibashi practise to be foind in the internet. I like this one, because it manages to stay calm and just shows the necessary movements.
