Carrie Murray, personal trainer, teaches this class. It typically runs for 45 minutes to an hour and includes standing Chi Gung exercises, but chairs are provided if needed. Many of the exercises can be modified when sitting. This practice is recommended for adults over the age of 25 or so.

The Tai Chi Gung is a simple and unique practice to equilibrium and health that was developed by LaoTzu. Its benefits vary depending on what you are looking to achieve. The exercises may enhance your physical fitness by:

• Improving flexibility and joint health;
• Enhancing cardiovascular function; and
• Strengthening the immune system.

They can also calm you, provide a deeper level of inner peace and cultivate more mindfulness. Although this practice offers many of the same benefits as the Tai Chi taught by the Tai Chi Society in Knoxville, it is unique in many ways. Please join the class to learn more about it and see if it is right for you! A suggested donation of $10 per class will go to Carrie; she also does Venmo.
