January
23 - 25 2009:
Chinese Healing Arts with Kevin Sullivan
New Age Health Spa will be offering
a Weekend of Chinese Healing Arts beginning
with an evening lecture on Friday Jan 23rd 2009,
classes all day Saturday and concluding Sunday
at 1:00 PM. In this weekend featuring Kevin
Sullivan, you will practice and observe various
traditional Chinese healing modalities so that
you may better understand the particular benefits
of each one. You will learn easy Qigong breathing
and walking exercises and a form of Tai Chi.
Tai Chi is a martial art that combines a series
of gentle exercises into a dance-like form.
Its many benefits include developing coordination,
balance and flexibility. We will divide the
Tai Chi form into separate exercises that are
easy to learn so you won’t need to remember
a long series of movements.
There are over a thousand different styles
of Tai Chi with varying speeds and movements.
The Chen and Chung styles use large circular
movements and move at faster rates than the
Wu and Yang styles, which move in slow, cross-like
formations. In addition to learning one of these
styles, you will see a demonstration of other
forms.
