Learning Outcome

How to minimise any risks from the perspective of the chosen Qigong system

Portfolio Exercise

"The Safety Script"

Task: Review your 45-minute class blueprint.

1. Identify One 'Seduction Point':
• Look at the specific exercises you chose. Where is the most likely place a student will try to "force" it? (e.g., "In 'Touching the Toes', students will try to force their hands to the floor, risking their lower back.")

2. Write Your Correction:
• Write the specific sentence you will say to the class before they start that movement to prevent this. (e.g., "Before we bend, remember: It does not matter how deep you go. Keep a soft bend in your knees and only go as far as your breath remains easy.")

3. The Safety Intro:
• Draft a 30-second opening statement for your class that sets the safety culture right from the start. (e.g., "Welcome. Today, listen to your body first and my voice second...")

Purpose: To proactively manage student safety by identifying high-risk moments and establishing a culture of self-care from the very first minute.
