What Our Friends Say

I have been participating in Fa Jia Body Exercise for the past 3 years. It is an important part of my Saturday routine that I never missed. Least said, I not only enjoy the exercise regimen but have also noticed the physical and emotional gain. The various exercises in 30 minutes are geared to the movement of most muscles and limbs of the body. More importantly, it has enhanced my ability to stay focused.  People of any age can benefit from Fa Jia Body Exercise, no wonder my 80 year old mom is also part of the Group.

I've been doing this 30 min exercise once a week for   4 months and I feel stronger in my balance and more flexibility in muscles.  I'm also energized for the entire day on the day of the exercise.

─ Linda W, Sunnyvale, CA

 

I am now 74 years old and my body needs work that I have greatly neglected. I practiced martial arts long time ago, but not kept it up. Now I need a way of practice which will keep me healthy in body, mind and soul.  The ability to keep consistent practice is what I have been missing.

The 10 forms of Fa Jia Exercise are loosening my rigid body for more flexibility. Fa Jia Qi Gong is giving me the opportunity to keep the training going. My old injuries and issues keep bothering me during practice.  My progress is slow but I believe I will improve after more practice.

As I practice, there is enlightenment to my body, mind and soul. What my body can do is amazing.  My mind wanders and so does my soul. As I practice they will get in line.  There is much to benefit from Fa Jia practice and will find more as I progress.

This is what I have experienced after 6 months of practice. I am on a Wellness Journey, training my body, mind and soul to live a healthy, prosperous and wealthy lifestyle.
