Transformative Journeys: What Our Clients Say

  • “I have mobility issues and I thought these classes might be just what I was looking for. They certainly were. They are not too taxing, so you don't need to be super fit. I go at my own pace and I'm finding that I'm more flexible than I was. My stress and anxiety levels are more easily managed. The class has a very calming effect. I look forward to it every week”.

    Linda D

  • “I have been attending Lorraine's Qigong classes for a few months now and am truly grateful for the results. I have a couple of physical issues and my mobility, flexibility and balance have visibly improved. I am also finding that I sleep better and can relax and deal with stress better. Lorraine is an excellent class teacher and her ability to use her medical knowledge to make the class aware of how Qigong impacts our bodies and minds adds to the whole experience. My only regret is that I did not start sooner”.

    Ina C

  • "I sleep much better and if I miss one or more classes in a week my sleeping pattern changes for the worse. I am much more supple in the mornings than I used to be. I feel more relaxed in situations that would have stressed me. You are a superb instructor with a first-class knowledge of Qigong. You realise what I need from class and support me to improve”.

    Helen O

  • “I thoroughly enjoy our Qigong class. I have noticed an improvement in my flexibility and occasionally interacting from a seated position for some of the class, presents no problem. Lorraine transmits happiness and joy throughout her informative commentaries, infused with a lovely sense of gentle humour! Altogether, excellent value for money I would say! Thank you, Lorraine, for providing us with Qigong”.

    Sandra R

  • “Lorraine is a fantastic teacher of Qigong. Leaving behind the stress of the day and focusing on an hour to myself, I have really found this class to be a time where I can centre myself and just be still. Whilst doing the mindful meditations Lorraine explains each movement well, also the medical benefits to our mind, soul & body. It’s my therapy session. I’m so thankful, I have also made some new friends".

    Gail H

  • "I have been attending Lorraine's Qigong classes since June. I suffer from lower back pain and I find Qigong to be both relaxing and inspirational. It's a great form of gentle exercise. Recently I had a one to one session with Lorraine who tailored a programme for me that suits my needs. The gentle stretching movements and breathing techniques are helping me to cope so much better compared to other forms of exercise I have tried to relieve my back symptoms in the past. I would highly recommend Lorraine's Qigong. I feel less stressed and more energised after my daily routine".

    Jo (Online classes)

  • "I like Qigong more each time… particularly the movement with the breath. I find it very easy to slip into that and it feels really calming and centreing. But also, the specific movements and what each one symbolises as many of them resonate with me. And you’re a great teacher. I couldn’t find anything negative to say even if I tried!"

    Morag (Online Classes)

  • “Lorraine's personable nature, clear instructions, extensive knowledge and application of theory to practice are only a couple of reasons why I have stuck with her [Qigong] classes… We each benefit from the feeling of perceived 1:1 intimacy of the online session, focusing on Lorraine and our own wellbeing with minimal external distractions and influences. I consistently sleep better and use more diaphragmatic breathing on a daily basis… a very enjoyable window of self-care and a precious time to develop self-awareness and calmness”.

    Susan (Online Classes)

  • I had been struggling with chronic pain when someone suggested Lorraine’s Qigong classes. I thoroughly enjoy the group classes and will definitely continue them, but the one to one experience of the bespoke programme that Lorraine tailored to suit my needs was really wonderful and truly magical. Her videos and meditations are very easy to follow and now I have them to keep to use daily. I would highly recommend Lorraine and have done to other friends. She’s a kind, caring, beautiful soul that is great to work with.

    Private Client Clare

  • I started learning Qigong with Lorraine through her excellent exercise classes. I chose to work one to one with Lorraine to overcome significant mental health challenges and to improve my general health and fitness. As a senior health professional, she provided a safe as well as fun environment to explore my issues. Through her tailored programme she has given me the skills and the confidence to establish my daily practice of meditation and exercise. This has been transformational for my health and I am finding more energy and flexibility each day, but people around me have noticed the smile on my face. I highly recommend Lorraine for her knowledge, attention to detail and motivational skills, as well as providing great value.

    Private Client - B

  • I have been going to Qigong classes led by Lorraine for a few years now and have felt the benefits from that practice. When I heard she was offering a bespoke, one to one practice I was keen to try it. Lorraine is very intuitive and listens carefully to what you want to get out of your practice. She explains things in an easy and encouraging manner. The exercises that she chooses personally for you are easy to follow from a private YouTube link. I feel that the bespoke sessions have had a profound effect on both my physical and mental wellbeing and has deepened my Qigong practice.

    Private Client - O

  • My objective in doing a private bespoke Qigong programme with Lorraine was to consolidate other areas of personal development with something which would support my body in a gentle, low-impact way, as well as promoting a greater sense of wellbeing… Lorraine, whose ability to integrate western medical knowledge with principles of traditional Chinese medicine, was so helpful and productive. I really appreciated this tailored, personal approach and the library of resources made available to me. I have made great progress and am now able to use Qigong to enhance my life on a daily basis. I wholeheartedly recommend Lorraine and the programmes that she offers.

  • Thank you, Lorraine, for my 8 week bespoke programme. I had no idea what to expect but am delighted with the results and the knowledge I have to take forward. Issues that I expressed have been focused on using Qigong practices, meditation and breathwork and these tools are now mine to use whenever I need. I have improved sleep and relaxation and can deal better with everyday stress. For many years I have had to cope with chronic spinal and joint issues and digestive problems and although they are still there, I am finding ways through Qigong to limit how they affect me. I'm at the start of a journey thanks to you.

    Private Client (NB)

  • If you get a chance to enjoy Qigong with Lorraine, I would say grab the opportunity. Her classes are fun, informative and her knowledge is second to none. Her enthusiasm is infectious, and she explains everything as you go along and it’s certainly the quickest hour in the week! I recently had an 8 week bespoke programme designed for my health issues and it has helped beyond all expectations. A treasure of information indeed and worth every penny. Thanks Lorraine.

    Private Client CH

  • I started Qigong classes with Lorraine 2 years ago hoping that it would improve restricted movement due to a worsening spine problem. The classes have improved my flexibility and discomfort immensely. I decided to invest in a bespoke [Qigong] programme with my trust in Lorraine's extensive medical knowledge and ability to combine the best of both East and West medicine. I am delighted with the improvement in both my physical and mental health. My GP is amazed with my range of movement, flexibility, energy and fitness despite the deterioration in my condition. I now have a more positive outlook and am able to manage my own physical and emotional health and enjoy life. Lorraine has taught me to Breathe and Believe and I can't thank her enough.
