In March - Tai Chi with Master Katie! Wednesday Night, 6pm


Tai Chi ~ CosmoDynamics

CosmoDynamics, also known Tai Chi, draws its knowledge from the I-Ching and ancient Taoist practices. It is a "soft" Chinese martial art form and a means of cultivating the qi, or chi, in the body. Tai Chi originally stemmed from the ancient practice of qi gong, and consists of many qi gong movements, and it evolved to a distinct and separate martial art form. It incorporates movements that are used as a form of relaxation and to teach control of every part of the body. The movements practiced are slow and steady, and students will focus on developing control and form.

The health benefits of regular practice include:

Practitioners studying CosmoDynamics will achieve better conditioning for the body and more importantly, develop a sense of internal calm. It is to learn to synchronize with the environment, to move with the dynamics of the cosmos. In using introspection, practitioners while bring together their inner strength and softness in the outside. It's about opening the mind and losing the structure.

This is a Weekend Intensive to explore Character Fixation with Adi

In Denial of our true nature we have assumed an identity that limits who we are. This intensive will be an opportunity to understand the patterns and trends that steered you away from who you truly, truly are.

We will be talking about the Emeagram system and using Buddhist psychology teachings to unravel the identification as a separate self, and connect with the oneness of one’s True Nature.

Each class will include a soulful yoga class, several meditations, and group meetings for deeper investigations. Every participant will have an opportunity for a one on one session with Adi as well.
