Join Body and Brain Pasadena on Sunday, Dec. 27 for a socially distanced in-person Tai Chi class at Jefferson Park, located at 1501 E. Villa St.
This one-hour class, which starts at 10 a.m., will introduce you to the many benefits of Tai Chi, all while practicing at a safe distance.
Tai Chi refers to the natural balance of life energy. Since ancient times, people have noticed that nature tends to find balance, and they’ve developed methods to tap into this natural energy phenomenon. Many different energy practices, like Qigong and various healing martial arts, are forms of Tai Chi.
Tai Chi exercises emphasize energy circulation, breathing and balance, along with mindfulness and concentration. You can practice these exercises while standing, seated or even while lying down.
Over time, by practicing Tai Chi, you can develop a heightened awareness of your own energy. Many people report feeling physically stronger and lighter, with emotions more calm and mind more clear.
Tai Chi practice is recommended for overall wellness. It can help with balance, alignment, and stress reduction.
Tai Chi exercises can also serve as a form of meditation. Energy-balancing exercises are great for people of all ages, and can be adapted for your own condition.
Regular Tai Chi can help you experience an improved mood, increased energy and stamina, reduced chronic pain, improved sleep and improved flexibility, balance and agility, as well as improved muscle strength and definition.
