Mondays, 8:00-9:00 AM, 18-Step Harmony Tai Chi, Chris Me'aley Mudarri

Harmony Tai Chi Chuan-Tai Chi is an ancient moving meditation benefiting mind, body and spirit. It harmonizes personal energy with universal energy and balances the three energy centers of the body. People practice Tai Chi to reduce stress, balance emotions, increase awareness, boost energy, sharpen the mind, improve immunity, and strengthen digestion. Some also practice for self-realization, spiritual growth, and a deeper understanding of their own life energy. Everyone finds fun, exercise and relaxation in its practice. A beautiful form that is part of the Ni Family heritage, Harmony Tai Chi embodies the spirit of the Tao Te Ching. Mastery of the form helps one to gain balance and harmony, and a deeper understanding and sense of Qi.

Tuesdays, 8:00-9:00 AM, Dao-Yin Yoga, Snohomish Brown

Dao-Yin Yoga, which means energy conducting union, is a system of gentle stretches that nurtures and invigorates personal energy and attunes it to maximize vitality. Dao-Yin is part of the Taoist Immortal cultivation tradition and is also part of the Taoist medical system, like physical therapy. Because Dao-Yin energizes and conducts your energy through certain specific channels or meridians in the body, it can also break up and dissipate emotional problems. It is especially effective for people who sit too much or for those who have their energy concentrated in their heads. Snohomish Brown is a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine and a Licensed Acupuncturist who has been teaching QiGong Energy Cultivation and Tai Chi for over twelve years. He will guide you through many postures and stretches accessible to almost anyone involved in any circumstance. And for the serious student in search of longevity and spiritual immortality, the foundation is here.

Thursdays, 8:00-9:00 AM, 24-step Taijiquan, Snohomish Brown
