Tai Chi Ball Qigong
for Everyone!
Online Workshop with Allison Deputy via Zoom
Saturday, August 22nd, 2020
2:00-3:30 PM Fee $28
A FUN and INVIGORATING workout using solid wooden balls (one pictured above is made of solid poplar and weighs about 4 pounds. Beginner balls start at 2-3 pounds). Tai Chi wooden balls were used in ancient times to increase strength and flexibility for weapons training. Now a resurrected practice for us in the modern world, MoonWillow is offering Tai Chi Ball Qigong to enhance anyone's physical health and well-being. This workshop will cover circling, rocking, walking, silk reeling, and rotating movements with breathing techniques. Strengthen your joints and spine, and get a great upper body workout to go with the lower! Join us for this beautiful, meditative practice, like holding a planet in your hands! Don't have a ball? Contact MoonWillow for more information to order one of your own. If you prefer something lighter and less pricey, a plastic ball from any big box store will do nicely, too!

Reeling
with Jarett Sanchez
DATE & TIME TBA
Silk Reeling (Chan Si Jin) is
the most universal body mechanic in all of Tai Chi. Silk Reeling
exercises involve simple, continuous, whole body movements that emphasize the
spiraling nature of this skill. The continuous flow of these exercises, common
to all Tai Chi styles, allows you to
focus on Dan Tien rotation, rooting, and relaxation of the upper body. Join
instructor Jarett Sanchez in this workshop that will add new dimensions to your
regular form practice. You will also learn how this energy can be applied in
everyday life.
All levels welcome! Be prepared to expand
your Tai Chi horizons!
Fee: $40/session ($32 Enhanced Members)

is Limited!

Push Hands:
An Exploration
Date TBA - 2:00-4:00 PM $40*
Pushing Hands (Tui Shou)
improves health and martial prowess through two-person training techniques that
teach
leverage, reflex, sensitivity, timing, coordination and positioning. Pushing
hands teaches the body to yield to force and redirect it, rather than resist
it. Training with a partner allows a student to develop ting jing (listening
power), the sensitivity to feel the direction and strength of a partner's
intention. Join Allison Deputy in this introductory workshop and experience the
fundamental techniques of this ancient practice – all levels welcome! Wear loose, comfortable clothing and bring
bottled water.
