YOQI RESOURCE Swimming Dragon Qigong Tutorial
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
The Swimming Dragon is a qigong stretch and flow exercise that opens the spine and allows life force energy called qi or prana to flow freely through the spinal column. In this tutorial, Marisa will demonstrate and guide you through the movements so that you can practice correctly and safely during the complete YOQI qigong flow routines or integrate into your yoga practice.

You are a wonderful teacher and your videos have helped with stress and with pain immeasurably. Your video on moods has made a horrible day better, and a good day magical. Love your work, Marissa. I have recommended your videos many times to people suffering from anxiety, pain, and benzo withdrawal, a suffering unimaginable to anyone who hasn't taken those hellishly addictive prescription drugs. With your help, I take no meds for pain or insomnia! Many thanks.
This Qigong practice is everything I need at this time. I have practised other forms of Qigong and I can truly say that this is the one practise that resonates with me totally. Thank you and blessings to you.
I suffer from a recurring upper Tx facet joint pinch, which seems immune to any physical therapy. This swimming dragon technique is the only movement that actually works to help alleviate the discomfort. Thanks so much Marisa.
I just can’t get enough of your routines, Marissa. THIS is ANOTHER amazing flow! I feel so open and filled with vitality after. 🙏🏽♥️🙏🏽
Thank you for the very clear explanation of how to do the swimming Dragon. I've seen it before and wanted to try it but couldn't figure out how to approach it until this video.
This is so great for the hips and I can feel the vitality running through me, feeling light in areas that don’t see enough of this Qi, light energy flowing around, I too love your videos, thank you!!
Thank you! I'm new to Qigong having been introduced to it during my 200 hr yoga teacher training and felt an immediate connection to it. I will be incorporating many Qigong movements in my classes and am so happy I found your channel. I love Swimming Dragon!
It was a miraculous flow! I feel myself fresh and awakened! I can't wait to practice with you again! Namaste🙏🤗
Done the swimming Dragon off and on for years with positive effect. Must say your instruction is great. I learn a lot by watching your UTUBE Video. Thank You.
Wow! I have been doing your you tube classes most days now all this year and some of last. A friend recommended by my mast cell disease. I do think this is certainly helping me a lot. But this is the first time I have tried the Swimming Dragon and I have to say I feel amazing! There is really something special about this one. I feel lighter and less knotted up in my middle ! It is amazing just from one practice. Will definitely be adding this one in and hopefully every day on top of the beginner or other green sessions I am already doing.Thank you such much Marissa you have without exaggeration changed my life. I could not afford acupuncture any more and you have given me the empowerment and confidence and skills to be able to be my own self-healer ! I wish that more people knew about the health benefits of what you are doing. What a gift to the world you provide. A mountain and more of gratitude and thank you so much for generosity and kindness.
Thank you! I've discovered your videos recently and just love them, love them, love them!
wowww; have not seen this exercise performed for sooo long and i never saw it demonstrated so perfectly, with such true groundedness, centredness. Master Yang from Taiwan did a series on this exercise a long time ago which are breathtaking like yours. Am truly stunned to see you teaching this, and with such grace.
Thank so much for your teachings. I really enjoy your teachings. I've been a stay at home mom and now grandma so never been able to take classes. They are the highlight of my day😊
I have discovered you recently and I cannot stop doing Qigong with you! I am in awe of everything that you do, you are a beautiful person inside and out, and I love the environment in which you do your exercise routine. I am surprised of how challenging this routine is for me, I have been exercising my entire life but I find Qigong exercises to activate different areas of my body than when I do yoga or pilates. Thank you!
Such a beautiful tutorial. I really enjoyed it and it helped me a immensely as i suffer back pain in the morning. This was perfect! Thank you!☺️
I love the flow of the Swimming Dragon. My spine feels very open from it. thank you
This is great! Right away I received a burst of energy. Thank you so much for sharing this lesson. I'm amazed at the new Qi gong styles that have emerged lately. I have practiced the Eight Pieces of Brocade from Master Yang and I know that these types of routines really help with many health concerns that most of us suffer from. Recently I've discovered Yi Jin Jing another great practice, and I love the variety you can never get bored. Please keep sharing these wonderful videos. God Bless!
You explain so clearly that it's impossible for someone not to understand. Thank you so much!
Thank you, Marisa - this was beautiful and your voice is amazing! It’s very relaxing and gentle and it would make a beautiful voice for audio books! ❤️
Marisa, I am grateful! Your instructions are very good ones! I love your sequences and your grace doing them (it inspires me)
What a perfect tutorial. 😊 I did it twice - it was so good and incredibly timing as my meditation this morning was about 2 types of water dragons . Blessings🙏
I love the flow and your explaining. I felt an inner voice/consciousness. It seems there are mysterious depths opening! Thank you.
So glad I found you. Love the way you say at the end, smile at your body, smile at nature all around you and take this into the rest of your day.
A beautiful version of the swimming dragon movements nicely explained!
I fully enjoyed it. I love the way you give clear instructions. It helps a lot. I love all your sessions. Thank you so much. 🙏🏼
Huge Thanks Marisa! Swimming Dragon for ever!
This practice makes a real difference! Thank you so much for sharing !!!❤️❤️❤️
I am sooo happy to have found YOQI and lovely Marisa! My lazy bones are waking up and enjoying the movements very much, that I do it d a i l y ! I'd like to express my gratitude.
thank you so much! I find my yoga practise too rigid, asthanga style without flowy, relaxing yet challenging moves. Dragon is what I was looking for!
I loved your easy to follow and informative instructions with this beautiful qigong movement. Thanks so much for sharing it.
I'm so glad I came across this channel, I've been following various tutorials on youtube for a while. Even though I'm coming across some exercises that I already knew, I've found the explanation here a lot clearer. And I'm also learning a lot of new things here which really helps a lot. So I want to express my appreciation :D

Thank you sooo very much Marissa, you are a formidable teacher!!!! Peace and much Love!
Thank you so very much for posting this!! I was taught the Swimming Dragon more than 20 years ago during a very difficult time in my life and it was incredibly helpful and strengthening. I could not remember how to do this and your instructions are so clear--now I can do this again!!

@@jayangli well it's been a couple years now since you asked the question. Have you figured it out yet? Asking for a friend😉
Absolutely love these practices Especially this swimming dragon. Thank you!
I love this tutorial! I have been practicing since early March (Covid-19 shutdown). I began with a Tai Chi Chu routine I had learned over 20 years ago with Justin Stone, but I saw you tube suggestions for YoQi, and fell in love with your (and Lee Holden's) routines. They have been easy to follow, fun, energizing, and one day I noticed I was getting thinner! An welcome surprise, indeed! I have a question, though about Swimming Dragon. After ignoring it for months, I finally checked it out. I certainly can move along with you, and feel great. However, I have always been left/right challenged. I can be doing a routine circling one way, but when it is time to pause and switch directions, I totally forget which way I was just going! I need a moment to start when told to move to the (right/left). SO, when it comes to flowing left to right while pushing opposite hips and shoulders forward, I can't keep up. The more I focus on getting it right, the more out of sync I become. Will I still be opening the spine if I just do my best without getting it right? Thank you for sharing your practice online.
This is one of the best instructional videos on KZread , thank you .
Hi Marisa - thank you for your lovingly curated videos - you have such a calm soothing voice and your instructions are clear and concise. The music is suitably calming ( do you share music?) and the backdrop is always amazing. This tutorial is a gem - so glad I started learning this precious movement, feel instant chi flowing results!
much gratitude and blessings, your guidance is with grace and effortless. In light and love xx
I'm very happy that I've found this channel , absolutely beautiful and blissful , thank you.
Very gentle, but super effective I love the mix of cultures here. Fascinating. Thank you, great video.💙
Love this so much! Just did for my morning qigong and it was so wonderful! My back and organs feel massaged now.
As a fellow QiGong instructor i just wanted to say you're amazing!
Thank you for your content. The practice of daily Qi Gong is where it's at, and you are one of the best teachers and a most beautiful soul. This practice was one of my batch of first Qi Gong exercises t for me to earn and get into it. Thank you so much. Blessed Be. - 'rascal recommends'
One of my students drew my attention to your swimming dragon. It is great to make this exercise my own with your tutorial and to include it in my Chi Neng Qigong classes. Thanks, love and Haula
This is expertly explained....and I'm loving it!
good start, doing allright, good basic. well explained. it fits well in my learning process of qi gong healing. it is a very important movement for spine and inner organs thnx

You have great videos that really improve health! Please keep posting!
This is a great exercise, Thanks for your clear and concise instruction. It may well be a silly question but I presume the formal exercise can be performed starting from both sides? If so, would you practice alternately left and right and how many rounds would you recommend?
Le cadre est magnifique, vous êtes magnifique, et très beau mouvement du Dragon qui nage. Merci merci merci. 🌹🙏💖☯🍀🕉

I really enjoyed this video! It actually helped me out a ton! I do believe that putting the website in the description of each post as well as on the about page would bring more traffic to your website though.
Thank you beautiful soul! Like this dragon energy! Love and light!❤
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, it has helped me tremendously. I’m having problems doing the swimming dragon. Please could you do a tutorial breaking down the swimming dragon from your backside. It’s hard to learn it mirrored. Thank you so much.
You are a wonderful leader! thank you.
Thanks for your response to my questions. I’ll think and explore your channel more thoroughly and get back to you. I look forward to more. Do you teach Hatha Yiga, as well?
Thank you. That was really new to me, and felt refreshing.
This is so wonderful! Can you direct me to a flow which this is part of? Many thanks for your wonderful work!
Thank you for this marvellous explanation. ❤❤❤

Thank you. I have been doing yoga for years now. But suddenly felt like something q bit more flowy. Wondering how you do both
Marissa You are marvelous!
Excellent video. Thanks.
Love it! Do you have a QiGong video that incorporates the swimming dragon into the practice? I'd like to do it as part of a continuous sequence of moves. Thanks!
Love this class too. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing such a blessing.
