I was overjoyed when I found Tai Chi classes with Shirsha. I had been suffering from arthritis in my knees, which meant I could not walk more than a few metres. Also I had been diagnosed with mild emphysema so my doctor suggested that I do Tai Chi to help my lungs repair. Now after three years of practice my lungs are healthy, I can take long walks on the beach and I have high energy and excellent health.

The alignment and deep breathing practices of Qigong really improve my posture and support my health. I have suffered from chronic fatigue as well as very difficult emotional states, and I find that, no matter how bad I might feel before a class, afterwards I feel cleared energetically with a lovely centred healthy feeling. I’ve had about 6 different Taiji and Qigong Teachers in the past, and I find that this teacher has a refined blend of warmth, grace and professionalism which creates a strong sense of safety in the practice. I’ve never before been so encouraged to come into a full embodied presence and I don’t imagine I would find better instruction anywhere else. Thankyou.

Shirsha Marie is quite simply one of the best teachers I have ever had. I began studying Qigong with her 3 years ago. It has had a profound effect on my life, leading to a quieter, deeper equilibrium within me. I am looking forward to further years of study with her.

Qigong with Shirsha these past few years has shown me a deep awareness of the connection between breath and body movement. I love her friendly and perceptive teaching style and feel my good health owes much to this practice.

I have been practicing Tai Chi and Qigong for 1.5 years with Shirsha with great benefit to mind and body. Her teaching style transmits the finer points and internal aspects of these arts very well, while keeping a calm and respectful environment. For me Tai Chi and Qigong are a perfect continuation of my internal development, martial and body maintenance  practices.

Training Hapkido with Shirsha has changed my life. I feel stronger, more resilient both mentally and physically. I'm calmer and get less injuries than ever before. I have always lived with pain in my neck and back from a young age, caused by various injuries throughout my life, this has been reduced substantially since starting this form of martial arts. Warning: Once you experience the health benefits of this school, you WILL become addicted. Not to mention the students are a fantastic bunch of people."
