Experienced students are the focus of this ongoing class but beginners may join after contacting the instructor. Tai Chi and Qi Gong are calming practices that incorporate slow movement, breathwork, visualization, and meditation. Consistent practice fosters improved balance, body alignment, coordination, and overall sense of well-being. Tai Chi students will also practice the Qi Gong.

To determine if you are ready for this level placement, please contact instructor Carolyn Wolf prior to attending at carwolf@sonic.net.

Instructors Bio: I have been a certified Tai Chi Practice Leader (from the Institute of Integral Qi Gong and Tai Chi) since 2015 and have been leading classes locally since then. I enjoy sharing all the practice has to offer; relaxation, increased body awareness, improved balance, meditation techniques, and overall improved well-being.”
