Easy Tai Chi™
(Tai Chi for Busy People™)
This is the EASIEST and most
effective Beginner's tai chi class we have ever developed! Learn a very
short, very beautiful and very "user friendly" sequence of tai chi moves
designed to help you feel relaxed, yet alive and energized. Video available
to help with home practice.
Remember, it is absolutely
unnecessary to learn a large number of confusing moves to benefit
from tai chi practice. In fact, too many people quit in frustration if
the process becomes too complicated, losing all possible benefit.
The focus of t'ai chi practice
should really be about the quality of each individual move, not the
number of moves. You will learn several moves well and can repeat them in a
variety of ways to fill any time period you have. We teach a few moves
thoroughly for maximum enjoyment and benefits.
Classes feature a relaxing
music background, as well as presentation of various areas of tai chi
philosophy and movement applications.
Keith Jeffery has taught tai
chi locally and internationally for almost 30 years. Our instructors are
well trained and certified. Who are they? Click here.
Beginner’s course – any age, any skill level.

4 Minute Fitness™
ONE CLASS ONLY, great by itself
or as a supplement to your t'ai chi, yoga, meditation or Pilates practice!
For better or worse, the
name of this technique produces intrigue and skepticism. Please do not
let the skepticism stop you from attending.
4
Minute Fitness incorporates a wellness breakthrough known as "Layered
Practice". We take key secrets from tai chi, yoga, qi gong, meditation,
deep breathing, modern science and motivational techniques and do them
simultaneously, rather than one at a time.
The whole process takes 4
minutes and can improve
balance, flexibility, strength, immune function and breathing.
Experience the
immediate effects of positive thinking and increased energy, knowing that
you can access that feeling anytime after the class.
These exercises can be done
standing or sitting by anyone, any age. Feel more relaxed, loving and
content. Feel alive in just 4 minutes.
Keith has presented this
session to businesses and organizations all over North America, as well as
to the US Department of Defense four times in Tokyo and once in Guam and
Okinawa.

Benefits
of these practices
In other words,
"why on earth would I spend an evening, or a series of evenings attending
these classes? What's in it for me?"

Back Health
A tragically
large number of people in modern society have back problems (in fact,
lower back pain is the number two reason people miss work!). 4 Minute
Fitness™ and Easy Tai Chi™
gently rotate and exercise each vertebra, creating more spinal
flexibility and movement.
More flexible
spines lead to better movement and improves sports performance
(baseball, golf, tennis etc.)
Fall
Prevention
And as we age,
our balance slowly and insidiously worsens until one day, we fall. A
quarter of all older people who break hips are dead within a year.
Better balance comes from daily practice. Use it or... lose it.
Take action now!
4 Minute Fitness and Easy Tai Chi™ will improve your strength and
balance by working the CORE muscles of the body in the same way Pilates
and yoga offer core strength.
Stress Relief
Both practices
are extremely effective in reducing stress and increasing vitality.
Slow, powerful movement, combined with deep re-vitalizing breathing
produces relaxation almost immediately.
Sronger
Immune System leads to Healthier Days
Your immune system requires
movement and deep breathing daily to be strong and effective.
Improves any Activity!
4 Minute Fitness™
and Easy Tai Chi™ are a perfect supplement
to any sport or activity.
If you have particular
questions,
