We’re excited to share that our Qi & Flow (Tai Chi) live classes are evolving into a new structured format designed to help you build real Tai Chi skill. This new 8-week Qi & Flow training cycle gives us a clearer path to develop both: - Strong Tai Chi foundational skills - A deeper understanding of the Beijing 24 Form 🌱 Why This New Format? This structure allows you to: - Build skills progressively and intentionally - Connect Tai Chi fundamentals directly to form practice - Revisit the same material each cycle—going deeper every time - Stay organized without losing the natural, flowing quality of Tai Chi - Supports both beginners and experienced students Think of it like stepping into a moving river—you can join anytime, and each pass brings more depth. 🔄 How These Classes Will Be Structured Each week follows a consistent and purposeful flow: 🗓️ Tuesday — Foundations - Yin–Yang Qigong - Tai Chi Stances - Tai Chi Walking 🗓️ Thursday — Internal Development - Silk Reeling: Covering movements from all 24 forms - Ocean Stepping: Develop coordination, flow, and internal connection 🗓️ Sunday — Form Practice - Beijing 24 Form: Apply everything into real form training ❓Can you join at any time, in any week? 👉 Yes. You can jump in whenever you’re ready! - Check which week we’re currently on and jump right in - Use past recordings to catch up at your own pace - Each cycle repeats, so you’ll continue building deeper understanding over time We’ll also be introducing a future 8-Week cycle for the second half of the Beijing 24, so you can eventually learn the full form. We’re really excited about this shift. It’s a very intentional way to train, while still keeping the practice natural, flowing, and alive. Looking forward to seeing your growth through this cycle. Please let us know if you have any questions🌱

Here’s the March Daily Chi Accountability Thread. This is a supportive space to show up for your practice, build consistency, and move together as a community. Whether you joined a live session, practiced along with YouTube inside the community, or completed a self-paced course, it all counts. What matters most is that you showed up. This thread will stay pinned for daily check-ins, connection, and encouragement. ✅ How to Check In Each Day After you finish your practice, post a short check-in using these four steps: 1️⃣ Intention What did you want to focus on or cultivate today? 2️⃣ Practice What practice did you do today? Live session, YouTube, or self-paced are all welcome. 3️⃣ After How do you feel after completing your practice? One short sentence is perfect. 4️⃣ Visual Share a photo or short video of your practice, your screen, or your setup. ✨ Sample Check-In Intention: To slow down and reconnect with my breath Practice: Live Session 12-21-2025 After: Feeling grounded, calm, and present Photo or video attached There’s no right or wrong way to participate here. Show up in a way that feels good to you, support others when you can, and enjoy the process. One day. One breath. One practice.

I am so enjoying the 7 Day Challenge. I'm a little (maybe a lot) overwhelmed with how much information there is and I'm thinking after a lot of exposure that feeling will lessen. Glad to have everyone here giving insight. Thank you!

For many years, decades actually, one of my teacher's Andy Dale produced an in house newsletter. I have archived almost all of the material and with his permission will be sharing articles and pieces from the vast collection. I thought it fitting to start with a piece on "Beginner's Mind" that I can remember reading way back when I first began training.

Hi everyone, just a quick update for today. Sonny is experiencing a migraine since last night and needs some time to rest and recover. We’ll need to cancel today’s live session. Thank you for your understanding. We’ll be back to our normal schedule on Thursday and look forward to practicing together then. In the meantime, feel free to revisit any recordings in the Classroom if you’d like to keep your practice going. Appreciate your support and see you soon 🌱
