I have been practising Qigong with Shirsha for more than 4 years. Of all the exercise and movement forms I have tried over the years, this has been the most interesting and rewarding. Over time, I’ve experienced certain physiological changes which neither medical nor alternative therapies have been able to produce - but the form has much to offer beyond the physical, and my sense is that one gets what one needs from it. The teaching here is deep and refined, and every class reveals something new to me in the form. There is an ever-unfolding exquisite subtlety to be found here.

I am most grateful for the commitment and compassion of our Tai Chi teacher Shirsha Marie. For 10 years now I have been practicing Tai Chi at the Centre here in Byron Bay and have been able to free my body from back and joint pain. Tai Chi has helped me to move to a deeper and more satisfying level of meditation. There are so many benefits for mind body and spirit from this ancient art.

The mixed Qigong and Tai Chi class is a focal point of my week as a chance to reset energetically. The practice has enhanced my balance, attitude and posture. Annual health check revealed that I have recovered 6 mm in height. It has helped me reconnect with the quality of awareness that is found in meditation.

I cannot recommend the Qigong taught at Heart Mind Centre highly enough. Each class is like a deeply healing massage and meditation. Deeply healing because the Qigong movements open up the channels for energy to flow throughout all areas of my body. And meditative because my mind becomes single focused on the exercises and the breathing. Although I have always enjoyed strong physical exercise I can feel that this is actually more powerful in its capacity to keep me fit and healthy.

"Shisha conducts her Qigong classes with so much patience, care and gentleness that I always feel empowered and guided by her in deeply feeling my energy and knowing my body better. Her mastery and clarity in turn also help me to tap into a wonderful inner flow, which has proven overtime to be extremely healing and regenerating for me."

I have been attending Shirsha's classes since February 2018 and practicing most days each week at home or by the river. Shirsha is an excellent teacher, her style is warm, clear and very thorough and her depth of knowledge is evident. I have received so much benefit from Qigong. It centres me, relaxes and calms my nervous system and energises me, all at the same time. I sometimes have issues with restricted breathing which this practice helps. It's even improved my eye sight as attested by my optometrist. Thank you Shirsha!
