yoga for the four seasons
Ancient wisdom teaches us to live in accordance with the changing seasons, just like plants and other animals. Sometimes we forget that humans are animals too. We too are the happiest and healthies when we align ourselves with nature’s rthyms. Lin’s class is created with this idea in mind. She also tailtors the practice for the individual students who enters the studio since it is an intimate setting. Her class combines various ancient qigong practices with gentle flow yoga. You will feel rejuvenated and peace at heart after the class.
wu style taichi
The Wu family style (吳家 or 吳氏; pinyin: wújiā or wúshì) of tai chi is the second most popular tai chi style practiced worldwide after Yang style tai chi. In fact, Wu style tai chi is derived directly from Yang style tai chi.
The routines of Wu style share very similar sequences of moves and names to Yang style tai chi. In Wu style, the stances are taller and the steps are shorter. This style of tai chi is well-suited for beginners and people with physical difficulties with low stances or physical disabilities which make it difficult to perform a wider range of motions.
While the motions may not be as extensive or deep, the physical health benefits and its effectiveness as a form of martial arts equals and may exceed some of the other styles of tai chi.
zhan zhuang
The fundational practice for all Chinese martial arts, Zhan Zhuang is a dynamic form of standing meditation that works with unifying Qi in the body. It is a simple yet powerful exercise to enhance energy, mental clarity, and heal the body in a natural way. Practiced regularly can cure chronic illnesses and bring balance to the body and mind.
Our Intention
We offer yoga & taichi classes for small groups so that we can tailor to the level of the participants, create community and inspire each other. At Lumina, classes are taught as a meditative and therapeutic practice, focusing on bringing awareness to the breath and connecting with ourselves through our bodies as we work with postures and movement.
