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.

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."

I am a doctor retired after forty years of medical practice in Byron Shire. As part of my quest in maintaining health into senior years, I have been attending Shirsha Marie's classes in Mullumbimby and Brunswick Heads and have also done a day Life-force Workshop. Shirsha is very dedicated to the healing traditions of Qigong and related Tai-chi and she makes it easy to follow with her clear demonstrations and explanations of this healing art which engages body, mind and breath.

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.

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.

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.
