SUMMARY:Dharma in Motion: Tai Chi Chih Joy Through Movement
DESCRIPTION:Access Stillness in the Midst of Activity\nTai Chi Chih – Joy through Movement® with Paul Ciske \nTuesdays 6:00 – 6:50 pm July 3 – September 25\, 2018 \nT’ai Chi Chih® is a moving meditation consisting of 20 easy-to-learn\, accessible movements. A form of qigong\, T’ai Chi Chih® circulates and balances the chi or energy of the body with the intention of bringing stillness and calm to the heart mind in the midst of activity. \nFor the past 25 years\, Paul Ciske has taught and practiced Tai Chi Chih (TCC) – Joy through Movement. His profession revolves around the body as a neurologic body worker\, movement trainer and coach\, and Conscious Embodiment facilitator. Paul was the original host of Larry Yang’s LGBTQ East Bay sitting group before EBMC existed and is a long-time member of Alphabet Sangha. \nDharma in Motion is a weekly offering of access-centered movement practices for all ages and abilities. Teachers and modalities will rotate every 5-6 weeks. Drop in format\, no experience necessary. Please wear clothing that allows for gentle movement.
