Chi gung is perhaps described as breath or energy management techniques.  Based on Chinese medical and Taoist philosophy.  Some systems have borrowed from/given to Chinese martial arts.  T`ai Chi for example is one long chi gung exercise.

All the systems share similar characteristics.  There will be a standing/moving  posture to hold.  A breathing pattern to establish.  Elements of self massage, either by gently striking/ touching the body or by the alignment of the limbs.  Visualisations of the path taken by the breath.

Systems taught include The Swan - a short moving sequence, Liang Gong -  a sort of Chinese Yoga, and the T`ai Chi Chi Gung - a set of postures with vocalisation.
