Check out the class flow from last week! This was our third class here. There is something extra special and grounding about doing Tai Chi together as the sun sets. It reinforces the value of the work we’re doing together. I'm thinking about how to bring our global community together in person for something that goes beyond a standard vacation, and has solid training combined with some subtropical adventures like snorkeling. Watch the clip below and let me know in the comments: would you travel to Oaxaca for a deep-dive training at a place like this? 👇

I am happy to join this very cool group! I'm Louis, retired School Principal and father of two. I am very enthusiastic about Tai Chi, currently teaching at two different locations. My interests and background include competitive Gymnastics, Shotokan Karate, the art of Bonsai and so much more! Let's practice together!

Happy New Year! 2026 is the year of Fire Horse! The official lunar year starts 2/17/2026, nevertheless, we can continue to shed our old snake skins and leap forward with care and compassion. Here’s someone doing high pat on horse intentionally. https://youtube.com/shorts/ZhkeFR24qp0?si=u1p4EN51ZWWaXePN

We are thrilled to officially announce that @Louis Carrillo has become our newest SOHMA Tai Chi Certified Instructor! Louis has long been a leader in our community, always going above and beyond to help his fellow students and instructors. Beyond our school walls, he has been a vital force in spreading Tai Chi throughout Long Beach. He has been leading at our free community classes at Heartwell Park and teaching Tai Chi at the YMCA. I even learned that he has been substitute teaching for one of our other graduates at the JCC. We are incredibly grateful to have such a high-caliber instructor and dedicated leader among our ranks. Please join us in the comments in congratulating Louis on this massive achievement! 🐉✨
