Qigong has been around for thousands of years as a Chinese martial art that strengthens you, heals you, helps you meditate, etc. We had Sifu Sal Canzoneiri come in for the first time in my center to share what Qigong is all about. Frankie, Lisa, and I went to Rockaway to do Sal's Qigong seminars a yea ago. It was just the three of us for a while and then summer came and Lisa continued to work with him and I began my training with Master Yee, and lo and behold a year later, we decided to share this Qigong thing with everyone else!
On March 10, we had about 18 people come to experience Sal and the Qigong methods we learned from his seminars. Not only was I really pleased with the turnout, but with the material Sal had demonstrated. We did the Wuji Qigong stance where we cultivated Qi into our hands, made Qi balls, and everyone reported they felt the heat in their hands, the ball formulating, Sal even had us do "Qi games" where we tested the Qi moving in and out of us through other people, transferring thoughts to another, and feeling interruptions in the Qi etc.
Two of my mentors were also present, Lisa and George Valentino, along with friends, new people, parents, and students. Sal also did a number of healings on people as well. I know what you're thinking. Healing? YES! Qi is also used to help heal physical, emotional, and spiritual ailments within your body. Qi is ENERGY, universal flow, always is and always will be. A master such as Sal, and even my own master (Sifu Pedro Yee), you can move the Qi and allow it to move and heal the person with ailments.
I think my favorite part is when he was demonstrating how you can take out negative Qi (energy) within a person and have it flow through to you. He put his hand over a woman's head and he was describing her feelings, feeling them through the Qi, and the woman confirmed exactly everything he was stating. He had his left palm over her head, and his right palm was just hanging down to his side, and he told us to take a look at it.
All 18 of us witnessed his hand turning red, then into a dark brownish color and we ALL said we said the symbol of a star in his hand! "Yeah, Qi will make symbols sometimes, but I don't always know what they mean," said Sal. Then as we were ooing and ahing about the hand turning dark brown, he explained how we must always send the energy back into mother earth where it belongs so it can transform into something new. He took a deep breath in, and swung his hand down with a big exhale and his hand turned WHITE!
Needless the say, the reaction of the 18 of us was unbelievable! "OH MY GOD!!!!! IT's LIKE MAAAAGIC!!!" Well it is magic! White magic, if anything! Sal left a phenomenal impression on the people who attended. There was such a demand from people who attended, and people who heard about it, that we did ANOTHER Qigong seminar the week AFTER on March 17th. And because there is STILL a demand for them, We will be doing ANOTHER on a Thursday night on April 4th at TMAFC at 7:00pm. $35 per-register, $45 at the door.
Sal will be coming weekly to TMAFC starting in April to do his Qigong program. You can pre-register each time, or come at the door, or pre purchase two, four, or eight classes with discounted prices at a time. He will also do private healings at TMAFC for those interested in that. If you're interested for more information call me at 201-203-0773 or email at tmafcinfo@gmail.com.
This truly is a magical experience. These are the type of things I want to share with the world and help people to becoming the best they can be and function fullest in life! And when you have the best of the best, like Sal, you can expect nothing less than MAGIC! (BOWS)
Yours in service,
MASTER TRENTO
