Parade to open NZ Winter Games
The organisers of the New Zealand Winter Games want lots of local people to enter floats in
a parade to open the games in Ohakune in September. The New Zealand Winter Games Committee met in Taumarunui Wednesday night last
week. At the meeting, Taumarunui information officer Beth Richards said a parade would be held on Sunday 15 September to open the games.
The practice and benefits of this ancient energy enhancing and health preserving exercise will last for the rest of your life, says Mr Koho. The information given and the methods taught will not date of wear out, for the technique has been in use in China for over 4,000 years and in China today there are about two million practitioners, he said.
It is best described as an energy exercise that balances and amplifies the intrinsic energy in the body. Chi Gong is usually done in gentle circular stretching movements. Sometimes it is even performed just standing, sitting or lying down with special breathing techniques so that the body can collect instead of continually disperse energy.
