Join Us for a FREE event at the park to celebrate World Tai Chi and Qigong Day - Rain or shine!

Qigong is a traditional Chinese practice that combines gentle movements, breathing exercises, and meditation to improve physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.  

Qigong has changed my life in ways I can not explain, and it is my mission to share with as many people as possible. It is considered preventive medicine and meditation in motion. 

Qigong’s foundational elements include:

• Intentional Movements: These are slow, deliberate, and balanced motions designed to harmonize the body.

• Rhythmic Breathing: This involves deep, slow, and steady breaths that align with the flowing movements.

• Awareness: Practitioners maintain a calm, focused meditative state, staying present and clear-minded.

• Visualization: This involves imagining the flow of Qi, or energy, circulating within and around the body.

Qigong is a FREE and available resource to all. You need no special clothes or equipment, just you and your willingness to try something new for health, healing and finding balance and calm in the mind and body. 

Tai Chi is often described as a moving meditation and offers great value in treating or preventing many health problems.  

Originally Tai Chi was used as a form of self-defense, but now it is also practiced as a health-promoting exercise.  

Tai Chi is complementary to medical treatments such as physical therapy and counseling because the meditative movements are not only strengthening to the physical body but also very calming to the mind and the emotions.  

Health benefits include increased energy, immunity, bone density, and strength, especially in the legs, which will help to improve balance.  Mental health benefits include relief from stress, anxiety, depression, pain, and a deeper, more restorative sleep.
