Introduction to T'ai Chi & Qigong. 1:30 - 4 pm. Our workshop focuses specifically on Chinese exercise for health and healing. Qi- gong, which means "breath/energy practice," brings optimal health to its practitioners through its life-enriching path of rejuvenation and self-actualization. Referred to as “Taoist Yoga,” Qigong empowers one to experience anti-aging, healing, and spiritual enlighten- ment. T’ai Chi, a form of qigong. combines exercise, meditation, and self-defense into one complete movement system. T’ai Chi’s hall- marks are non-violence, yielding, and neu- tralization, principles that can be applied to everyday living. Both arts are wonderful compliments to all other physical, mental, and spiritual endeavors. Your instructor, Eric Reiss, has forty years experience in T'ai Chi Ch'uan and Qigong. He is certified by the National T'ai Chi Ch'uan Association, Los Angeles. Fee: $29 if registered by Sept. 10, or $35 after. Location: Kernersville Yoga, 144 N. Cherry St., Ste. 2, Kernersville.
