 “…thousands of illnesses vanish into dust.” – 

This is the last line of a poem describing the qualities of the Eight Pieces of Silk Brocade. I am looking forward to sharing this profound and healing practice with you. It is a practice I love and variations of which I have known for many years.

The 8 Pieces of The Silk Brocade is a simple, powerful and internal form that was created to maintain the physical, emotional and mental health of warriors about 1000 years ago.  Its practice is often surprises on first encounter, surpassing the obvious expectation of an SAS forces training. The Silk Brocade is a subtle and profound form: gentle and accessible. It can be done seated or standing and is an excellent vehicle for recovery from any debilitating trauma or condition.  If depression has descended or some life-changing medical event was experienced as well as dealing with the challenges of daily living, The 8 pieces of The Silk Brocade is a healing path suitable for all.  The practice contains eight separate movements (or pieces) that  work with differing energies and meridians
