Introduction to Tai Chi/Qigong! Hosted by EmblemHealth - Suggested Donation: $5

In conjunction with EmblemHealth, this introductory Tai Chi and Qigong restorative wellness class is being held exclusively for the HarlemGo Meetup group members!

You will experience basic chi (energy) movements that help to reduce stress, gain clarity and promote relaxation.

You will be guided through:

• Chi (energy) movements/stretches

• Breathing techniques

• Energy meditation

Originally from China, but now practiced the world over, Tai Chi and Qigong combine natural, physical movement with breathing,visualization, and mental concentration, to give you a full body and mind workout. The mind is actively engaged, making Tai Chi and Qigong superior for relieving mental stress and enhancing personal growth and emotional well-being.
