Autumn Flow: Gentle Yoga for Inner Integration
As the seasons shift, autumn invites us to slow down, soften, and turn inward. This small group class blends gentle slow flow with nourishing yin postures, creating space to integrate the lessons of summer while preparing for the quieter months ahead. In the wisdom of the season, autumn is linked to the lungs and the process of release — letting go of what no longer serves, including sadness or grief, and transforming it into breath, clarity, and nourishment. Through mindful movement, breath awareness, and stillness, we’ll support the body, heart, and spirit in finding balance and ease. This is a cozy, reflective practice suitable for all levels.self.
Standing Meditation & Taichi
In Tai Chi, we do not train the body alone.
We cultivate the spirit, refine the breath, and return the heart to stillness.
This four-class series offers a doorway into the classical foundations of Tai Chi, beginning with the most essential: standing. Through standing meditation (站桩 zhàn zhuāng), we learn to settle the body, quiet the mind, and feel the subtle flow of Qi.
Then, movement arises—not from force, but from connection.
Each gesture flows from the ground, passes through the center, and extends outward like water guided by the contours of a stream.
Together, we will explore:
🌿 Rooting and aligning the body with the earth
🌿 Moving with softness, intention, and natural breath
🌿 The principle of song (鬆) — deep release without collapse
we return to our original nature: balanced, quiet, alive.
No experience needed. All bodies, all ages welcome. Come with sincerity; leave with a deeper sense of harmony.
