Weekly Classes

Tai Chi, Qigong and Tao Spirit

Studio Classes are temporarily suspended due to the social distancing measures currently in place. I look forward to recommencing them and seeing you all again as soon as possible.

In the meantime, you can train with me Online!   Please find my Online Class schedule here.

Welcome to comprehensive training programmes in the soft-style martial art of Tai Chi, the gentle exercise art of Qigong, and Tao Spirit – my holistic, strengthening martial arts class. Whether you choose a gentle or stronger class, all promote a powerful healing of the body-mind system. I provide a safe, supportive and non-competitive training environment which allows students to develop relaxed power, self-reflection, emotional balance and a calm, peaceful mind.

My classes offer systematic training in a variety of strong and soft energy building methods. Although these energising techniques are working right from the first class, it can take a few weeks to really feel the effects. From then on, with sustained practise, the systems steadily accelerate into dynamic internal energy workouts. Over time you can expect your practise to undergo profound transformations. As with all true arts, patience and commitment are required to gain the most benefit from Tai Chi, Qigong and Qi Power.

Tai Chi classes offer an experience of stillness in action, through softly flowing, circular movements based on alignment, relaxation and meditation.

Qigong classes offer an experience of harmony in motion, through gentle, restorative self-healing practices which integrate body, breath and mind.

Qi Power classes offer a more dynamic training for strength & vitality, through a fusion of martial arts, qigong and body psychotherapy moves.

Classes run weekly during NSW school Terms

Lynne, Social Worker

I have been attending Qigong classes at Heart Mind Centre for around 6 months. I feel totally safe within the class atmosphere and realize all the health benefits of this beautiful meditative style of movement for body and soul. At the completion of every class I feel so much more aware of balance, harmony and calm from within. Our teacher, Shirsha shares the most beautiful, graceful presentation of the Qigong movements, always with careful guidance and with insightful instruction. This has become a very powerful and deep experience for me. I have gratitude for her sharing of inner light and strength with me in this long journey of developing Chi.

Lynne, Social Worker

Tom, PhD. Consultant

I have been a Tai Chi and Qigong student with Shirsha Marie for 14 years. Without hesitation I can assert that the particular forms and style of practice I have learned over this period have enabled me to successfully manage a chronic spinal injury. With my instructor’s guidance I have been able to change my body alignment, develop skills of balance and coordination, and gain strength and power. Shirsha has refined skills and a deep understanding of martial arts and energy work in general. The overwhelmingly positive energy of this large and beautiful school is available for all students in their practice.

Tom, PhD. Consultant

Sera, Artist

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.

Sera, Artist

Sono, Creative Director

Through Tai Chi I experience a profound sense of myself and my world. It is a powerful vehicle that brings my mind into union with my body, my life force and into resonance with the heartbeat of life. My years training with Shirsha have been a wonderful blend of informative instruction and interesting learning. We have been incredibly lucky to have been taught by an instructor who, not only is passionate about these arts but embodies grace, patience and the rare ability to transfer her knowledge whilst retaining impeccably, the integrity of this extraordinary art.

Sono, Creative Director

Anna, Lawyer

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.

Anna, Lawyer

Leonie, Business Owner

After nearly 18 months of Hapkido training, I've gained a great deal of strength, improved flexibility and there appears to be a kind of physical re-alignment occurring. Beyond the physical, I've noticed improvements in my ability to focus and have gained greater clarity and calmness of mind. With Shirsha we train in an environment of acceptance, mutual respect and integrity. As a beginner, I feel I have just touched the surface and am excited about continuing to train and discover more of what this very old and beautiful art has to offer.
