About the class: Tai chi is a Chinese art and discipline with a heritage spanning centuries. It works toward the balance and harmony of Yin and Yang in order to expand human potential. Though it promotes health, improves balance, increases body awareness, and fosters mental calm, its primary directive is to align personal chi with universal chi.

About Mary: I bring to my teaching thirteen years of tai chi training—seven of these with Chris Taw at High Barre, and six years with Master Jose Perez. I continue to study with Master Perez. I teach internal energy cultivation, the First Thirteen, and the complete Long Form. I am happy to be joining High Barre

Class description: I teach primarily Hatha style yoga with a focus on the combination of movement, breath, and meditation. We work to develop strength, flexibility, relaxation, and mindfulness. A great class for beginners as well as more experienced yogis!

About Liz: To me, yoga is about making a space for restoration and building strength - not about perfection or performance. In my class, we will focus on healing and strengthening movements, restorative breathing, and meditation. Yoga has been an important part of my own self-care for over a decade, and I am now a certified yoga instructor. In addition to teaching yoga, I am a part-time apparel product developer and a full-time mom to two girls. I grew up in northwest Iowa but now live in Mineral Point, WI. I love to spend time with family and friends, be on the water, and be creative. Yoga has always been a calming and empowering practice for me, and I look forward to sharing that with you!

In the New York Times today!

“Why practice tai chi?
Tai chi blends mental focus and physical effort to build strength, flexibility and mindfulness, said Peter Wayne, the director of the Osher Center for Integrative Medicine and the author of “The Harvard Medical School Guide to Tai Chi.”
The poses are upright and less demanding than many in yoga, another mind-body practice. “Because tai chi evolved in terms of physical function and interaction, I think it translates better to everyday living activities, like lifting groceries, pushing doors open or catching things that fall,” Dr. Wayne said. Tai chi is also different from passive techniques like meditation because it pairs deep breathing and movement, which experts say helps you to calm your nervous system.”
