When you speak, I do my best to listen. So, I’ve listened (with my heart) when some of you have said “I wish I could afford to attend more of your offerings”. (Sorry to those saying, “I wish you were in my area!” I’m staying put! I’m debating about allowing workshops to be attended both live AND online, but we’ll see…) In an effort to reach more people that are sincerely interested in my teachings, I’m going to start accepting scholarship applications for: general classes, workshops, and specialty series of classes. Scholarship students will be kept completely anonymous and will be given a “class pack card” for the value of whatever their specific scholarship is for. However, scholarship students will be held at a slightly different personal standard; I must see that your efforts to learn and practice the arts of tai chi and/or qigong match the level of effort I am putting in to teaching you. Scholarship students would do well to practice consciously on their own at least 3x week in order to ensure that progress is being made and the effort noticed by me. To apply for a scholarship for general classes, a series of classes, or a workshop: -Send Adrian an email at: [email protected] with the subject heading “scholarship application” -Each email/application should contain the following information:
Class Descriptions:
Women's Qigong: This Women’s Qigong Group is for those women who are wanting to deepen their connection with themselves, physically and energetically, while also forming and deepening connections with other powerful women. (Hint, that’s ALL women!) We’ll use various Qigong movements and sets to connect into our own bodies and get to know them on the physical and energetic level as we move together. Attendees can expect a group that flows from connection and conversation to movement and back again during each hour and a half long evening class, held outdoors at the beautiful Willow Grove Farm; the class will transition to an indoor location with the changing of the season. All women (18+, please!) should feel very welcome to attend this group, where building a container of safety and peace to practice Qigong inside of is paramount. No matter your current mobility or health projects, please attend if you feel called to do so. This group will be 100% donation based, and contributing your energy to the group will be considered a full donation. Limited-Mobility Friendly Practical Tai Chi: Adrian’s Practical Tai Chi classes are a blend of tai chi and qigong, designed to connect each practitioner more deeply with their self, focusing on proper body structure and grounding, while strengthening the entire body. The limited-mobility friendly designation means that those with limited mobility or needing support (chair, etc) should feel very welcome to attend and request modifications of all movements taught. Yang Form Practice class description: The Yang 37 Posture Short Form classes (advanced and intermediate) start off with gentle qigong warm-ups to cultivate energy and get our bodies warmed up. We then primarily focus on learning or refining our understanding of the Yang 37 Posture Form, while deepening our relationship with our bodies' physical and energetic systems. Strengthening the entire body while staying grounded is emphasized. Tai Chi benefits: Tai Chi has the potential to regulate blood pressure, build muscle, and increase strength and stability in all areas of life. Tai Chi can also decrease stress, anxiety, and depression while improving mood, energy, and stamina. Increased blood and chi flow can lessen overall pain. ### |
