Jood’s passion for Qi Gong grew from a year spent traveling throughout Asia and living in Taiwan in her late twenties where she became fascinated by Chinese Medicine. Throughout her life and career—from working as an Occupational Therapist in England to graduate studies in Counseling and Human Relations in the US—she has been drawn to practices that support the connection between mind, body and spirit.
A HOLDEN QIGONG Certified teacher, Jood enjoys sharing the powerful combination of breath work, gentle movement, energy awareness and meditation that this ancient practice offers.
She continues to be inspired by the timeless wisdom of a practice that has supported health, vitality and wellbeing for thousands of years while remaining deeply relevant in today’s world.
Jood teaches Qi Gong classes at Bodycentric Healing Arts in Bryn Mawr, PA and is available for private classes.
