Wanted to share this book with you all! Martial Arts Coloring Book for Adults -Claudia Botero

I am enjoying this class so much. My question pertains to the YouTube videos being available in the members’ classroom venue as well. Will there be a YouTube section under the classroom tab or am I missing it? Just a thought. Thank you.

Another beautiful day in the word of Qi Gong. I hope everyone is anticipating the zoom classes with eagerness. I wish all calmness and vitality as results of your practice and hope you have a wonderful day

Was worried about sleeping tonight and went outside tonight and it was a clear night full of stars and Orion was out in his full glory. He’s my favorite constellation. He comes out fall to spring. I love winter. I had to do a Weekly Qi to get grounded and find some calmness before bed. Practicing at night alone in the backyard with all my wife’s fairy lights was magical. I felt great, calm, and ready to go to bed. Good night everybody
