Tai Chi
Learn the slow, meditative martial art of Tai Chi, a centuries-old Chinese practice that harmonizes the body, mind, and spirit. This gentle yet powerful movement art focuses on cultivating Chi (also called Qi), the vital life energy that flows through all living beings. We play with the first 1/3 of the yang short form.
Through graceful, mindful movements, you’ll develop balance, coordination, and relaxation, while releasing physical tension and calming your thoughts. Tai Chi is often described as “meditation in motion”, a way to strengthen the body while bringing peace to the mind.
In this class, we’ll explore and play with the first third of the Yang short form, one of the most popular and accessible Tai Chi sequences. You’ll learn foundational postures, breathing techniques, and the principles of flow and grounding.
No prior experience is required, just comfortable clothing, a curious mind, and a willingness to move slowly and mindfully.
