Welcome to Soen Ren!

 
'Soen' is a character from ancient chinese texts, often translated as 'the gentle wind'. The word 'ren' has many meanings, one of which is 'people'.
 
The Soen Ren School of Spiritual Arts was created to emphasise the element of spiritual development within a variety of diciplines from around the world.  The aim is to improve enjoyment of life through these practices, which include all aspects of martial arts; taiji, qi gong, kung fu and yoga and meditation.
 
At the root of all these traditions is the will to build strength and flexibility in the body, stability in the mind, and sincerity in spirit.  Therefore Soen Ren's classes create a foundation to support everyday living, to reduce stress and tension in the body and mind, and to enjoy the practice, whether new to it or not.
 
Each tradition is taught in its own form in separate classes. Teaching is based in Central Edinburgh and the next term begins July 25th 2011.
