Steph Laf Posted February 5, 2018 Good evening all, Thanks for having me. I'm a Medical Qigong Therapist, about to start the Master's first seminar and very excited about it. Also been training in Wing Chun for the last 5 years, and about to start tai chi. Very happy to have stumbled upon this forum :0) 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted February 5, 2018 Hello, Steph Laf and welcome. Your membership is approved and we're happy you found your way to us. We look forward to accompanying you on some of the way that you still have to go. Please take the time to read the post pinned at the top of this Welcome page and take a look at the forum Terms and Rules. This covers all you need to know when getting started. For the first week you will be restricted to ten posts per day but after that you can post as much as you like. Also, until you’ve posted fifteen times in the forums, you’ll be a “Junior Bum” with somewhat restricted access and will be allowed only two private messages per day. Good luck in your pursuits and best wishes to you, Marblehead and the TDB team Hi Steph, Sounds like you will be busy for a while. My compliments on your continued training. Watch your stumbling; it doesn't look very poetic. You are welcome to jump right in ongoing discussions, revive an older thread, start a new thread of your own, or start a discussion in the "Newcomer Corner" sub-forms to expand on your introduction or ask general questions to help you get started. May you enjoy your time here. Marblehead 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stonehouse Posted February 5, 2018 Welcome et salut, friend. I called Montreal home for about 4 years while I studied at McGill. Love the city - though the winters are tough. I'll bet your therapy has assisted more than a few bruised bottoms and sprained ankles, hmm? I practice Tai Chi, but I'm hoping to get into medical Chi Gong. I was thinking Baduanjin - do you recommend any other? My Tai Chi teacher is showing us five animals, but I'm having trouble finding a uniform set of instructions online. Anyway, please be welcome here! Stonehouse 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steph Laf Posted February 7, 2018 Thank you all! Stonehouse: I'm training with Sean Laflamme, DMQ, who studied with Jerry Alan Johnson and Dr Bernard Shannon at the ICMQ. The curriculum is the one thought at the ICMQ and is the only one I ever studied, so I couldn't recommend any other. In my opinion, Qigong and martial arts are not made to be learned through online courses; an experimented teacher is essential. If you wish, have a look at the calendar and description for the classes here http://www.acupuncturemontreal.com/en/medical_qigong.php 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
