Tai Chi/Chi Gung
Tai Chi is a low impact, slow moving and graceful Chinese art used to promote physical and mental health. Tai Chi combined with Chi Gung (which means “life energy cultivation”) involves the practice of rhythmic breathing coordinated with slow stylized repetition of fluid movement, a calm mindful state, and visualization. Movements can be modified for those who cannot stand for long periods of time.
Class will meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays at either 10:00-11:00am. We offer 4-week sessions. Class is open to all levels. Sign up at the MRC Business Office or call (812) 376-9241. You are welcome to join mid-session, class fee can be prorated.
