✨Awakening with Spring: A Yoga Journey✨
As the world stirs and the days grow long, we are invited to move outward. This spring series offers a bright, sunlit sanctuary to welcome the light as it returns in fullness.
Together, we will take the time to gently unfold from our shadows, finding the vitality that only awakening can provide. Through pranayama (breathwork) and flowing postures, we will tend to the "growing sun"—that blossoming seed of intention reaching toward the light of the season.
No experience is needed. Come as you are to slow down, breathe deeply, and honor the rhythm of the spring soul.
The Art of the Basics- Taichi Foundation
Most Tai Chi classes move fast — learn the next move, memorize the sequence, keep up with the group. This series is different.
We slow way down.
Before we add more moves, we focus on how your body actually feels when you stand, breathe, and shift your weight. That means we spend real time on the stuff that usually gets skipped — like what "relax your shoulders" actually means in your body, and how a movement can feel effortless instead of forced.
We start with Zhan Zhuang (站桩) — Standing Meditation. This is the foundational practice of the whole series. It sounds almost too simple: just stand still. But learning to settle your weight, soften your joints, and actually feel what your body is doing from the inside — that's the real work. Most teachers skip past this, but it's honestly the thing that makes everything else click. We'll come back to it every class.
From there, movement comes naturally — not as a choreography to memorize, but as something that starts to make sense from the inside out.
Over these 4 classes we'll work on:
🌿 Zhan Zhuang standing practice as your foundation — body aligned, mind settled, breath easy
🌿 How to root and align your body so movement feels stable and natural
🌿 Moving slowly with intention — not stiff, not floppy, but connected
🌿 Learning to release tension without losing your structure (this one's a game changer)
No experience needed. All ages and bodies welcome. Just come curious and ready to pay attention to the small stuff — that's where the real learning happens.
