Traditional Chinese medicine believes that good health is the result of a free-flowing, well-balanced qi (bio- energy) system, while sickness, pain or physical disorders are the result of qi blockage, or unbalanced qi in the body. Qigong practice helps to balance the qi system in the body and break the qi blockages to recover health. It helps you develop a more relaxed, harmonious state of mind and body; reduce stress; resist illness; and heighten sensitivity to your body's internal organs along with developing an energetic ability to regulate your own health and vitality. You will focus on body posture adjustment and gentle movement, mind-focused relaxation, and breath regulation practice.

I'm one of two people in the class with multiple sclerosis, and balance is a real challenge. Although this is the first time I've ever tried tai chi, I think it will make me stronger and more agile, and I believe the approach to our training and instruction to be beneficial not only for me but for anyone who wants to establish balance (of any kind) in their lives. The physical and mental prep for Tai Chi Is a great way to start a new day. It's a great course, a knowledgeable teacher and I hope to sign up for it again."
