Tai Chi Easy Workshop – West Springfield VA

Sat, January 28th, 2017 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

$30

 

This 2 hour workshop will include a gentle warm up, learning the basic hand motions (sitting and standing), basic Tai Chi walking and putting it all together.

‘Tai Chi Easy’ was created by Roger Jahnke of the IIQTC to make Tai Chi more accessible for all ages and abilities. Tai Chi is one of the most complex forms of Qigong (an ancient Chinese system for health and wellness of mind and body). Tai Chi Easy takes five essential movements from the traditional Yang style 108 movement long form, and distills it into a simplified practice that makes Tai Chi easy, beneficial and fun right away.

The form was created by carefully reviewing many of the most popular and beneficial forms and distilling it down to five. It is a low-impact, slow-motion exercise. As you move, you breathe deeply and naturally, focusing your attention on the mind, body and the breath. It can be done standing or sitting, and the most important thing is not “the form” or “the movement”, but the state of “being” (state of awareness) in the movement.
