For both beginning and continuing students, this fun class teaches students how to maximize the flow of Chi, (energy) utilizing the Yang Style 10 Form called "Ping Gate of Life", created by Grand Master Aiping Cheng. You will combine “moving meditation” with gentle revitalizing exercise as you benefit from improved strength, conditioning, coordination, flexibility, and balance. Students also report experiencing increased energy, reduced stress, reduced pain, enhanced sleep, and/or feelings of wellbeing. You will learn an overview of Tai Chi history, philosophy, and major influences of Tai Chi; the 10 - step Yang Style “Ping Gate of Life” from start to finish; Mindfulness and the mind-body connection in Tai Chi, and more!
