OUR CLASSES
Chen Style Tai Chi
Chen Tai Chi for health classes emphasize the art’s unique spiraling “silk reeling” movements to improve joint mobility and internal energy flow. These sessions balance slow, meditative sequences with gentle weight shifts that build significant core strength and leg stability. While focusing on the health aspects, the classes teach students how to cultivate “Peng Jin” (internal buoyancy) to relieve physical tension and enhance overall vitality. It is an excellent choice for those seeking a more physically engaging yet therapeutic practice.
Qigong (Chi Kung)
Qigong classes focus on the cultivation of vital energy through a combination of gentle movement, controlled breathing, and focused intention. These sessions typically involve repetitive, low-impact exercises designed to clear energy blockages, strengthen the immune system, and calm the nervous system. Participants learn to synchronize breath with motion to achieve a state of “meditation in movememt,” promoting deep relaxation and internal healing. These classes are highly accessible and serve as an excellent foundation for overall longevity and stress management.
Yang Style Tai Chi
Yang Tai Chi for health classes focus on slow, rhythmic movements and deep breathing to promote physical and mental harmony. These sessions emphasize low-impact exercises that improve balance, coordination, and leg strength while gently lubricating the joints. Participants often experience reduced stress and improved circulation through the style’s signature “soft” and continuous flowing forms. These classes are highly inclusive, offering a meditative environment suitable for all ages and physical conditions.
