Full Bio & Programs
For kids, ages 5–11.
Children of all ages love the wonderful feeling that comes from the flowing movements of tai chi. Kids who are stressed find inner peace; hyperactive kids discover tools for self-control. Stomachaches and headaches melt away as kids learn to relax and breathe. Tai chi can even help to increase self-esteem.
In this fun-filled weekend workshop, children learn
- Simple tai chi movements, visualization, and breathing
- How the calm of their practice can be carried over to other activities including art, hiking, writing, conversation, making friends, relaxation, decision making, and meals
- New ways to think about goals, relationships, and the world around them.
In between tai chi activities, there is time for swimming, free play, exploration, reading, and conversation.
