Teaching basis of Gi gong is made on the bases of practical seminars. Presently there are 4 levels of teaching, starting with the first. Usually a seminar takes 4-6 days in succession for 3 hours in a day, which is considered sufficiently intensive practice. The level of seminar rises thanks to the introductory (free of charge) lecture. But, for diverse reasons, introductory lectures take place very seldom. More frequently, except for the studying of exercises on a seminar, during a seminar an instructor asks to repeat exercises at home, which can take from 30 minutes to 2 hours a day. After seminar an instructor usually suggests to visit regular sessions. Usually they are conducted in the same place, where the seminars take place. To work hard is necessary from the first stage. Seminars can be lead only by tested instructors. It is possible to get concrete information about each instructor.
Lets talk in details about seminars. On seminars an instructor explains, what exercises are included in this stage, as it is correctly necessary to execute these exercises, explains the effect from exercises. Also he says, what mistakes can be made at implementation of exercises. Except for it, a stage in Gi gong is a small jump in advancement of getting strong, as during the sessions a man gets and works out energies, without which implementation of the exercises made on a certain stage will be less effective. Similarly during seminars a man gets information about subconscious level. This information is similarly needed for further independent or optional practice of Gi gong, and in the process of making exercises such information gradually implements into practice. After seminars a man can practice independently or optionally, executing already acquainted to him exercises. But we do not recommend to people visit optional sessions before they pass preparation on seminars. It is tied-up, as was already talked, and without training the effect from implementation of exercises will be less effective. It can happen so that man visiting the sessions simply will understand nothing and will abandon the practice. But it is important that a person has a good effect and mood after the acquaintance with Gi gong. And for this purpose you don’t need to hurry up.
It is necessary not to forget another side of seminars. Especially it concerns sessions on the 1st stage. This is, certainly, acquaintance. A person meets school, explores its "atmosphere", instructors, simply people which practice in this school. Therefore, when, coming after seminars on optional sessions or simply practice independently, a man reproduces the "atmosphere" of school in consciousness. That helps a man to be influenced, and is an instrument in the receipt of greater effect from exercises.
It should be said, that the exercises of Gi gong, studying in the school, could be prolonged from 1 year, 10 years and more.
Except for which are devoted to the receipt of knowledges on separate stages, the so-called "regular" employments are conducted in many separations. Except for the sessions, which are devoted to the receipt of know ledges on separate stages, the so-called "regular" sessions are conducted in many separations.
Depending on terms (presence of permanent instructor, presence of apartment and etc) optional sessions can be conducted on regular basis of 1-3 times per week, or there can be the so-called club days in certain days, when people go not only for joint practice but also for joint intercourse, exchange by news, discussions of some problems and questions.
The presence of instructor on optional session (regular and clubs), generally speaking, is not obligatory, as on these sessions material is only being practiced. |
