Join us for Beginner's Yang-style Tai Chi, Practical Tai Chi and Family-style Tai Chi - for the kids!

First Presbyterian Church Of Wi******er, 116 S Loudoun St, Wi******er, VA 22601

Check out our website for more details!
Tai Chi is a whole-body system of health in which mindful, graceful flowing movements are made without pause; a series of unified movements is called a "form". This tai chi class will focus on learning and refining an 8-posture tai chi form as taught by Adrian VanKeuren.
Proper body structure, grounding, and flow are emphasized.
Classes begin with qigong warm-ups and breathing before moving into form practice. This class is appropriate for beginner and intermediate students, including those with previous tai chi experience.
Class held at First Presbyterian Church in the (fully ADA accessible) downstairs Rumble Room, located at 116 S Loudoun St in downtown Wi******er on the walking mall. While the church does have a parking lot that is accessed from Cameron Street, you will need to enter the church through the large glass doors off of Loudoun Street.
Please note that these doors will be locked ahead of the class; the teacher will unlock them to allow students to enter starting 10 minutes before class time. Please note that the doors will need to be locked again while class is in session, as absolutely no wandering of the church will be permitted. Please arrive on time to avoid being accidently locked out of class. We appreciate your understanding as we strive to be a good fit at First Presbyterian Church!
Donations are graciously accepted but not required. MoveMentation is a nonprofit organization that values your presence and participation as an equal energy exchange.

We're only one week away from our next Tai Chi Wisdom Circle!

☯️ Summer & the Fire Element: A Time of Balance
💠 Wednesday, 6/24 at Bowman Library, 5:30-7pm

This Wisdom Circle focuses on the Fire 🔥 Element constitution type; we'll also learn about the linked organ pairs of heart/small intestine & pericardium/sanjiao.

We are so grateful to all of our students and friends that joined us at any of our three classes today!

We know that making time to attend our classes isn't easy - life is life, after all. And while we like to say we're the only ones required to attend ALL of our classes (and even then it's iffy!), we're so grateful when you all prioritize learning and flowing energy with us - as is your body!

Heather LeighAnn Halsey, thank you for attending ALL of our classes today, and for asking for further information on energetic meridians. We love getting to help students and friends grow their understanding of Classic Chinese Medicine philosophies and tai chi and qigong movements! 😍🥰

Qigong for Clarity of Vision

Saturday, June 13 ·1:00 – 2:30pm
Bowman Library, 871 Tasker Rd, Stephens City, VA 22655, USA

Eyes and liver and the Wood Element - oh, my!
Attendees will gain a better understanding of the relationship Classic Chinese Medicine theory places between the wood element and our vision. We'll discuss and experience how certain movements can bring both external and internal clarity of vision by learning an eye massage, relevant acupressure points, and several qigong movements that can help reset and rebalance our vision.

We had such a lovely day with our students and fairy friends on Saturday June 6th! While we taught 4 classes, including our first Family-style Tai Chi class - for the kids!, the pictures are from the Flutterby Fairy Festival, taken by Wi******er's own Fairy Godmother Sharia Des Jardins.

Highlights from the day not pictured:

🌼 Adrian's joy at being back in class with her Saturday students after a week off, a week traveling for a (wonderful!) qigong class, AND a week helping her mother recover from heart surgery - she missed her students in those 3 weeks away!!

🌼 The look of unmitigated joy on a student's face after Adrian taught an ear stimulation exercise that may be able to improve hearing - and based on the look of joy, it might just be working!

🌼 Our unicorn rubber ducks becoming the "tea cups" for the qigong movement "Buddha's attendant serves tea" - some of those ducks stayed on our palms, and some went flying! 😂

🌼 The chaos - and beauty - of 2 & 3 year olds running around adults doing tai chi, while their teenage siblings looked on with gentle smiles

🌼 The look on one of our young fairy's face when she felt her Qi spinning between her palms during an exercise we did... 😍

All in all, Saturday was a day that reminds us that no matter how much work it is to run a nonprofit, it's all worth it. Please feel very welcome to join MoveMentation at any of our upcoming classes and offerings! We can't promise the unicorn rubber ducks will be there - but they might be!
