Tai Chi & Qi Gong
Tai Chi and Qi Gong are gentle forms of exercise that promote harmony between mind and body. Through slow, graceful movements and focused breathing, they offer a peaceful way to improve flexibility, strength, and inner peace. In this class we will learn a short Healing Qi Gong Series which will address each of the 5 elements of traditional Chinese medicine: wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. Each movement in the series is designed to activate and balance the corresponding element within our bodies, promoting overall well-being and vitality. We will also introduce the Tai Chi basic 8-series . By practicing these flowing movements with intention and mindfulness, we can cultivate a deeper connection to our inner energy and restore balance to our physical and emotional selves.
Join us on this journey of self-discovery and holistic wellness as we explore the ancient wisdom of Tai Chi and Qi Gong. This class is perfect for people of all ages seeking a kinder approach to physical activity.*

ANSWERS YOU MIGHT WANT
Common Questions
01
Is Tai Chi gentler than yoga?
If you experience joint problems, balance issues, or prefer a more gentle exercise, Tai Chi could be a more suitable option. On the other hand, although yoga can offer a more dynamic physical workout, beginning with a slow flow or yin class and utilizing props can make yoga inclusive for individuals facing physical difficulties. Ultimately, the choice between yoga or tai chi comes down to personal preference, and fortunately, there's no need to pick just one – you can enjoy both practices.
02
Do I need to bring anything to class?
For yoga class you will need a yoga mat with a grippy surface. It will also help to bring your own props: a yoga blanket, 2 blocks, a strap, and even a bolster if you happen to have one. We will have some props available but you may enjoy having your own to ensure you’ll have what you need and to help with your home practice.
For Tai chi you don’t need a thing. Just wear loose comfortable clothes and flat shoes or bare feet.
03
What is the difference between Tai Chi and Qi Gong?
- Qi Gong involves repetitive precise movements aimed at achieving specific physical, emotional, and spiritual goals.
- Each movement activates different meridians associated with the 5 elements in Traditional Chinese Medicine, linked to specific organs, bodily systems, and emotions.
- Through the combination of movement and breath, Qi Gong enhances physical strength, releases stagnant emotions, fosters positive emotions, aids in healing, and fosters a connection with one's authentic self.
- Tai Chi comprises a sequence of Qi Gong movements performed in a continuous form, targeting the entire body, organs, and emotions by circulating chi throughout.
- Both Tai Chi and Qi Gong can serve as forms of active meditation, helping to calm the mind and enrich spiritual practices.
