If it too hot in the sunshine, we move close the the picnic table on the east side of the children’s playground. If weather does not permit, we meet in the gym on the 1st floor.
Herb Mahood has been offering Tai Chi to Assiniboine staff and students for over five years.
Tai Chi is a moving medication practice. Herb Mahood makes it accessible to anyone, regardless of experience level by introducing static movements one at a time and then introducing more movement and sequencing. Every session opens and closes with the eight brocades, a gentle Qigong practice that involves intentional movement coordinated with breathing.
