T’AI CHI CHIH WITH PAT

Tuesdays at Joslyn 2:00pm-3:00pm

T’ai Chi Chih is not a martial art but rather a tool for selfhealing. Softness, flow and effortless are guiding principles in this practice. The 19 movements and one pose are designed to stimulate, circulate and balance the vital energy of universal life force, referred to as Qi, which is inherent in all of us. T’ai Chi Chih is often thought of as a moving mediation because of the calming effect on the mind and emotions, and the release of tension throughout

GREETING CARD/PAPERCRAFT CLASS

2nd Thursday at Joslyn 1:00pm-2:00pm
