Association
About the NQA
The
National Qigong (Chi Kung) Association is the premier membership
organization
for qigong. We are an umbrella for all groups, schools, enthusiasts.
Western or Eastern. Ancient or Modern.
We are the primary
group for
networking and coordinating students, teachers, supporters and
professionals.
We support scientific
endeavors as the benefits of Qigong and Tai Chi are researched,
documented,
published.
We are innovative
with our use
of the web, podcasts and our sharing of all types of qigong
information.
The NQA does not
support any
one person or Qigong/Tai Chi style. We are a democratic 501c3 tax
exempt
organization.
We are not just a
list of
people or a set of classes, we are a COMMUNITY.
Be a part of the Qi
Flow and
the Qi Excitement that is moving through our country.
Our Mission: Enhancing
and nourishing the quality of life through Qigong for all.
“If
you
want to be healthy and live
to
100, do Qigong.”
- Dr. Mehmet Oz

National
Expert Meeting on Qigong & Tai Chi - Consensus Report
Through
funding from the Archstone Foundation, the National Blueprint Office at
the University of Illinois
at Urbana Champaign, the National Council on Aging, and the Institute
of Integral Qigong and Tai Chi convened an expert meeting in which the
above Consensus Report was produced. This report highlights the
challenges of integrating Qigong and Tai Chi programs into the aging
network and identifies the necessary components of an effective program
to meet the needs of diverse populations with varying functional
abilities.
"There was a broad consensus that Qi Gong
and Tai Chi programs provide numerous physical and
psychological health benefits and contribute to the well-being of those
who participate regularly.
Research has shown that Qi Gong and Tai Chi participation reduces blood
pressure, increases
maximum oxygen consumption, increases immune function, and improves
flexibility."
