LEARN THE ART OF MEDITATION IN MOTIONThe practice of Tai Chi Chuan balances the “great polarity” otherwise known as yin & yang. These opposing forces are in constant flux in nature and our bodies, and Tai Chi Chuan teaches us how to live in harmony with these forces. The benefits of a consistent practice are vast - many practitioners report improved balance, flexibility, muscle tone, and enhanced immunity.
Sharpen your focus and find your true inner strength in a 4-week series proven to reduce stress, improve coordination and energy, and reduce risk of falls. Appropriate for all ages, levels, and abilities.
What to Expect:
Week 1: Introduction to Tai Chi fundamentals, including basic stances, postures, and movements. Learn the principles of alignment and flow. Week 2: Build on stances and postures from week 1, and begin integrating breath and movement. Week 3: Begin stringing together postures into sequences and refine your technique. Week 4: Combine postures, breath, and meditation into a flowing sequence. Emphasis on mindfulness and application of Tai Chi principles in daily life. Each session will build upon the previous: including stillness and guided movement, resulting in a simple routine to cultivate a sense of calm and well-being that can be practiced for a lifetime.

Nurture your mind and body in this immersive full-body listening experience.You'll start the session with connecting and chanting in preparation for deep rest. Audra will then guide you in Yoga Nidra meditation as she takes you on a multidimensional sound journey by merging her voice with vibrations from the Quartz crystal bowls, chimes, and the gong to activate your body's natural healing systems.
Yoga Nidra, also known as yogic sleep, is a guided meditation technique that induces the state of consciousness between sleeping and waking. The combination of sound and Yoga Nidra together will help replenish your entire being.
Most of the session will be spent lying down - feel free to bring eye pillows or anything else to maximize your comfort. Mats, blankets, and bolsters are available in the classroom.
