What is Tai Chi Gung?
Tai Chi Gung, also known as a Simple Yoga, is a moving meditation that uses slow, intentional movement and breath to cultivate balance, relaxation, and the flow of Qi throughout the body. It is rooted in traditional Chinese mind-body practice and brings body, mind, and breath into greater harmony.
What a class looks like
- Slow, flowing movements you can follow at your own pace
- Steady, intentional breathing that matches each movement
- Standing practice that asks you to stay present and grounded
- A calm, unhurried start to your morning
