Hailed by Harvard Medical School as “Medication in Motion,” Tai Chi and Qi Gong are valued as preventative practices for many health problems, including joint pain, muscle tension, anxiety, insomnia and more. 

​

Every class begins with a warm up, followed by a walking practice and simple exercises designed to promote relaxed breathing, focused mind and a restful being. 

While Qi Gong consists of standing meditation exercises, Tai Chi ‘posture’ is a single movement, for example, like “Part Wild Horse’s Mane” or “Brush Knee.” These postures are linked together by transitions.  This linking creates the Tai Chi Form.  

​

Beginner classes are planned and structured so students are introduced to important Tai Chi principles, through symmetrical short forms, with the goal of learning the 10 Step form.  This  preparation will probably take 12 months - 18 months. Learning short forms and gradually building up to learning the Beijing 24 allows the brain to become more aware of principles of movement and technique, preparing it for the challenges of the longer Forms.
