Qi Gong is an ancient practice rooted in chinese tradition.Using movement, breathing, visualization and meditation to cultivate awareness, relaxation and
energy. Its history can be traced back into to at least to the times of Confucius (Kong Zi 551-479 BCE) with a traditional view of it dating back to the times of the Yellow Emperor 2500 BCE. Qi Gong focuses on developing
openness in the body while developing an abundance of healing energy. The umbrella term "Qi Gong" can be translated to mean "breath" or "energy work". This practice is an integral part of Traditional Chinese
Medicine, Martial arts and Spiritual practice within China.

What’s an evening without music? It’s the perfect compliment to good food and drink. Which is why every Sunday at 7 pm, Pourhouse hosts the rotating sounds of Russell Sholberg, Gord Whyte, or Paul Dohrty, and the popular singer, crooner, and guitar player Curtis Parry. The Dire Wolves play now and again, filling up the restaurant with fans and their bluegrass tunes. They even play the washboard!
