Being a cycle courier is a demanding,stressful and an exhausting profession.Problems arise for couriers in a number of ways.Problems arising from structural misalignment.Note:That most people do not realize they have structural imbalances until they are overwhelmed by repetitive strain injuries.Injuries such as this are career threatening unless handled with a full and experiential knowledge of this subject.There is the physical price to be paid for cycling all day hunched over the handlebars of a bike,structural alignments are difficult to maintain in such a position,There is a large amount of stress to the spine,shoulders and shoulder blades,hip,knee and ankle joints.At times it is difficult to gain the feedback from cycling itself to make structural changes that can improve your riding technique.If you suffer from constant niggles and pains,numbness in the limbs,road rage etc.then Qi Gong can help you short term to mitigate the symptoms and long term to eradicate the causal factors involved.The bio-mechanics of classical Qi Gong exercise can address the long term chronic tensions and blockages that inhibit your tracking to the pedal.This is a specialist skill that has to be taught by someone with experience in advanced structural observation.Benefits for the courier include:th releasing of blockages which inhibit deeper diaphragmatic breathing,improved lower limb tracking,identifying spinal imbalances that are negatively effect your tracking.Ground your force and balance and strengthen your joints.Improve recovery rates Increase your cycling economy.Less effort more speed!!Plus generally learn how to deal with rage responses through a neural re-patterning technique unique to some forms of Qi Gong meditation.You are invited to a talk and demo and taster session of Qi Gong(FOR COURIERS)on the WEDNESDAY 19th SEPTEMBER at 7pm at Chris Ray`s Real Taoism Studio AT 142 Charing Cross Rd.Cost £10.Pre-booking necessary-call Asen(HonkyTonk)07904 265 628 to book.
i did Qi Gong and steel wire mantis kung fu for a while. not only could i not fly around tree tops fighting evil demons and that but i got run over and smashed to bits by a stolen car anyway. all those fucking films would had me believe the car would have exploded and i'd have been left standing all sort of aggggggggh hiiiiiiiia. turned out to be a load of shite
yep the films can do that to u.fortunately for me i`ve never beleved in any of that hoolywood crap.the experience i`ve had with Qi Gong is far from the trivial and even further away from the fantasy of a good storyteller.no doubt there is lots of shit in circulation. i feel for u.hope u r ok.peace
