Basic low impact for improving strength, balance, endurance as well as stress relief based on the Taiji principles of Yin and Yang.

Tai Chi is an ancient practice of slow, movements, meditation & breathing exercises.
It’s not fast-paced, or a fat burning workout. Tai chi helps improve blood circulation, alignment, balance and restore energy.

Steve began training in the martial arts over 50 years ago. Taiji Center opened doors in 1996 with the goal in mind to offer a practical form of self-defense, health and a philosophy that promotes harmony in a sometimes difficult world.

Ground Yourself: Nature Walking Meditation at Heartwood Preserve is a one-hour “quiet-time” meditation walk in the woods, where you will experience the peace of the outdoors. The smells, sight of a flower, sound of birds, feeling of the breeze.

Rise above the hustle and bustle and begin your day

focused, centered, and connected with nature.

 

De-Stress with your Guide Justin Martz. Justin will lead us for a morning meditation walk followed by seated breath work for inner peace and deep relaxation. Justin Martz is a 200-hour graduate & teacher-trainer at JivaPatha School of Conscious Yoga & House of Light Yoga, in Spring Hill, FL.

Meditation & nature are fantastic ways to ground yourself, connect and get some exercise, in the beautiful natural surroundings of Heartwood Preserve. We will start with a walk in the woods along Heartwood’s nature trails and footpaths listening to the wildlife and all it offers.

After our mindful walk in nature we will have a guided mediation session, outside in the Preserve. This seated mediation will include gentle routines for those who may have limited physical limitations, focusing on breath work & visualization techniques, all guided by Danielle.

Danielle Christina Lee: Encouraged by a friend, Danielle taught her first yoga class in the mountains of Big Bear, California while on a personal… development journey. Returning home, she found a local gym to work with a wonderful mentor. She has been teaching at Infinity Fitness and Beyond since September of 2014
Danielle currently teaches Gentle/Hatha Flow, Vinyasa/Power & Therapeutic Aqua Yoga. Danielle is an RYT200 from Pose by Pose Yoga and is currently enrolled in their 500 hour program.

Please feel free to bring your yoga mats, meditation cushion & anything else which will help you to relax.
