I joined Paul’s regular Tuesday evening Tai Chi & Qigong class a number of months ago after discovering that pains that I had in my back were rheumatic and was advised to take pain relief tablets, I was disturbed by the amount of them that I required (daily). The gentle Tai Chi & Qigong exercise has had a surprising almost immediate result and I have no longer use tablets. The gentle exercises together with the seated meditation practice have convinced me to carry on attending the classes which I find thoroughly enjoyable and would highly recommend everyone to try Qigong.
I have also had breathing problems ever since I was a child and have never been able to find anything which would really give long term help, but the simple Qigong breathing exercise which Paul has given me has surprised me with its effectiveness and has assisted me greatly.

I started doing Qigong and Tai Chi after suffering a stroke and have been doing it for about 9 months now (Tuesdy mornings at Churchill Hall, Runcorn) When I began I had a very stiff leg caused by the stroke and also AF (atrial fibrillation) both conditions have since improved, particularly my leg which I can now bend and can walk up and down steps better and almost kneel down again!! I will get to kneel eventually which will be really good. My husband comes with me and we both enjoy the classes. Paul is a good teacher and we never feel it is too much for us pensioners!! We have a good age range in our class and it is nice and friendly.
