Live ZOOM Class Descriptions 

Mondays 10:00:  Qigong for Optimal Health: Every week we practice different Qigong forms.  Breathwork, self massage, meditation and movement are all incorporated into this one hour class.  Your body will feel gently stretched, your heart and mind will be clear and calm and you will feel more connection to your spirit and the spirits of all living beings on the planet.

Wednesdays 9:00:  Introduction to Tai Chi:  In this 10 week series you will learn the basic philosophy, movements, principles and history of Tai Chi (Taiji). 
We will start each class with a reading from a Classic Chinese Text, practice warmups for  joints and muscles and concentrate on 2 Tai Chi Forms.
1.  Yang Style Simplified: a repetitive 8 movement form
2.  Wudang Tai Chi: an elegant 18 movement form from Wudang Mtns., the birthplace of Tai Chi.

This class is good for beginners and experienced practitioners wishing to learn new forms.  Doctors recommend Tai chi for Balance, Memory and Fitness but it is also Fun!

Class Descriptions

Qigong for Optimal Health classes concentrate on optimal health, longevity, vitality and healing the body and emotional mind. The exercises reduce stress and improve the practitioners' overall health and sense of well-being. Exercises can be done seated, standing or lying down, thus, they are an excellent practice for those who are recovering from surgery illness or injury as well as those who want to maintain and improve their health.

Tai Chi Easy™ classes combine movements with meditation, bringing balance, harmony and alignment to the body and mind.  The Tai Chi Easy™5 movement form that makes it easy, beneficial and fun -- right away.  Students learn beautiful movement practices designed to emphasize the cultivation of inner strength, improve balance, calm the mind and restore the body to its natural state of health.

Tai Chi Easy Level 2:  We add 4 more movements to Tai Chi Easy to practice Tai Chi 9.  We also practice Wudang Tai Chi, a beautiful 18 movement form from the Wudang Mountains, the birthplace of Tai Chi.  Not recommended for people who have no Qigong or Tai Chi experience.

Qigong/Tai Chi classes are a relaxed combination of the best of Qigong and simple Tai Chi forms.

Wudang Qigong/Tai Chi: Wudang 8 Brocades and Wudang Tai Chi Yin Style.  Jessica will share these forms of Qigong and Tai Chi that she learned in the Wudang Mountains of China.
