About this event
Tai Chi & Chi Gung or "energy work" is a Taoist system of exercise designed to improve and balance energy flow in the body. We cultivate a simple and natural structure to relax the body and facilitate optimal energy flow. Optimal Movement follows naturally from this structure, which allows movement "generated from the legs, controlled by the waist (center), and reaching to the fingertips." Tai Chi is a martial arts form utilizing these same principles. Hunter Beck began study of martial arts in 1971 with Shotokan. In college, he studied yoga and Feldenkrais and Alexander systems. He started Tai Chi practice with Dr. Chan Mei-Shui in 1987 and continued with Jampa McKenzie, Robert Tangora, Bruce Frantzis "Energy Arts" and Steve Barowsky, among others.
