The tai chi tao exercises, also known as meditation in motion, consist of slow, controlled movements that relax while also getting your energy flowing again. The Chinese call this 'wu wei', or 'action through non-action'. Discover and experience the healing power of gentle strength. We do these exercises outdoors as much as possible.

Alongside this meditation in motion, you will be introduced to zazen, a form of Buddhist meditation where you sit completely still in silence. We will focus on aspects such as the correct sitting posture, following the breath, and kinhin (walking meditation).
