Qigong or Chi Kung is a healing art of developing vital energy particularly for health, vitality, mind expansion and spiritual cultivation. Qigong translates as energy through exercise. Qigong, simply stated, is the cultivation of Qi or vital life energy.

The roots of Qigong are over 2000 years old. The great Taoist poet/philosopher Chuang Tzu stated, in 300 BC, "the ancients breathed down to their heels". This suggests that the breath, in the form of the Qi, is projected and circulated throughout the body. In 1973 an archeological excavation of a Han dynasty (220 BC-220 AD) tomb in Hunan Province revealed a series of over 40 figures painted onto a silk scroll doing various Qigong movements.

Tai Chi Chuan or Tai Chi was originally derived from Qigong as a martial art.

Qigong may be used to heal yourself, maintain and improve your own level of health, or to heal others.

There are many schools of Qigong teaching different varieties of Qigong.
