Tai Chi & QiGong–Grassroots of Self Care
Ever feel like your health is not under your control? Ever think there has got to be a better way of staying healthy than boring and sometimes damaging exercise? Want to build a stronger immune system, improve balance and flexibility, reduce stress and create a stronger, more vibrant body by moving in a lovely, slow, dance-like way? Enter the ancient arts of Tai Chi and Qigong. Learn how you may lower your BP 10 points in two minutes, increase your circulation and mental focus, prevent and improve many health conditions, and the list goes on and on. Come and let us share with you the wonderful and dynamic healing world of Tai Chi
and Qi Gong.
Even if you are already on the Tai Chi Path—unless you are studying with a private instructor at a private studio—there are limits to what you will learn and what is allowed to be taught. At Trayfoot Mountain Studio we have no such limitations. Techniques and advanced theory shared in our classes will greatly enhance your Tai Chi and Qi Gong studies…no matter who you study with!
FREE Introductory Class! Call for an appointment.
FYI: All my classes are small so we can focus on individual health, healing and improvement. Everyone welcome! For more information call 540-476-1789

Trayfoot Studio Fall Schedule
Tai Chi, Qigong & Meditation in the Treetops!
Mondays
10:00 a.m.–Blended Seasonal Healing Qigong* and Meditation
This is a wonderful class for those who want to improve or maintain their health naturally with the seasons. As the seasons flow gently we do to, adding movements specific to the current season to basic 5 element movements. This helps our body adapt to the changes of each season and avoid seasonal ailments like colds and flu. For example, because fall puts extra stress on the lungs, we do movements specific to strengthening and healing our respiratory system.
After we complete the movements we have a guided meditation and do some qigong self-massage. While you do not have to attend every Monday, those who do usually reap more benefits. Everyone from 18 to 100 is welcome in this class…no experience necessary!
Thursdays
10:00 a.m. –Tai Forms & Fan Tai Chi
This is a mixed level class with beginners to the more experienced. We do a variety of easy and intermediate forms. We are currently working on the lovely Rainbow Fan Form–but don’t the name fool you–it is also has self-defense applications! If you decide to join this class, I will meet with you privately a couple of times to get you started so you can blend into the group already working on the form.
We are still outside doing Tai Chi in the Tops!

*About Seasonal Qigong
Think healthy lungs, heart, liver etc. and breast cancer prevention! I consider this my “flu shot”!
In the Spring, we work predominantly on healing movements for the liver and associated organs, in the Summer we focus on the heart, in the Fall the lungs/respiratory system, and in the Winter we work on kidney/bladder/adrenal health.
Although we focus on major organ systems each season, we also work on all systems in each class.
Start your week off right with Blended Seasonal Qigong!
