The practices concentrate on the work with the life energy called Jing, its transmutation into Qi, balancing the water and fire Qi according to the individual needs and its distribution within the whole body, the changing of Qi into the spiritual force Shen and working on the experience of the absolute (Tao) using Shen. There are different styles of qigong, soft and hard ones. Some include just particular moves, some constitute whole sets of moves.
Shaolin Qigong group in Warsaw was established in 2010, when the first seminar on Qigong and Taiji quan with sifu Sławomir Pawłowski took place.
Since then, we have been organising Qigong seminars monthly and since January 2011 we have been practicing weekly under the guidance of Rafał Becker -an apprentice of Sławomir Pawłowski.

These trainings were similat to the today's Vale Tudo and MMA. Then, Pawłowski practiced also Shotokan karate.
