Description
Tai Chi and Qi Gong for Individuals with Challenges
Tai Chi and Qi Gong for Individuals with Special Needs
Every Friday @ 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM
A combination of Tai Chi and Qi Gong, involving simple, gentle movements with mindful breathing. These exercises can help relieve all forms of stress – physical, mental, emotional – restoring the mind and body to a state of calm and wellbeing. The grounding effect of the
exercises helps with feeling balanced on a physical level as well as helps promote a feeling of self-worth, having purpose, and being connected to the world at large. Sessions typically end with a short meditation session.
Aligned with my philosophy of giving back to the community, I am happy to provide this class FREE of cost or have a minimum donation of $5 towards JCHAC’s conservation efforts.
PLEASE NOTE: Registration required. No drop-ins. Please register by end of business one day prior to class date. (Eg. Wed evening for Thu class, or Thu evening for Fri class).
