December 21, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 10:30 am

Celebrating Winter Solstice with T’ai Chi Chih –

Embodying Nature and the Elements

Thursday, December 21, 2023

9:00 – 10:30 AM PST (Time Zone Converter)

Online, over Zoom

T’ai Chi Chih is a moving meditation that gathers the chi/the life force from the earth and circulates the chi in our bodies. These easy-to-learn accessible movements invite softness and continuity as they release tension, negativity and stress and bring healing to the body-heart-mind. Embodying nature and the elements while practicing T’ai Chi Chih, we experience a profound synergy and ever-deepening interconnectedness.

Join us in welcoming the winter season!

🌟 Movements offered both seated and standing

🌟 No prior experience necessary

 

Registered participants will receive a link to join us via Zoom with their Eventbrite confirmation email.
