🥋✨ Taichi & Chai Morning in the Park ☀️🌿 8/2 Saturday @ Union Square Park Start your day with slow, mindful movement + warm chai + good company 🍵🧘🏻‍♀️ We’ll kick off with a gentle Taichi session led by Cathy Luo — a former Wushu athlete who represented Team USA in global competitions 🇺🇸🌍. Cathy trained in Chinese martial arts for over a decade and now shares her practice to help others connect with body, breath, and culture. 🌀 Taichi Class Flow: 1️⃣ 5 min demo to introduce the practice 2️⃣ 5 min warm-up + mini meditation 3️⃣ 20 min of basic movements 4️⃣ 20 min to learn the 8-style form — a beautiful, flowing sequence of 8 beginner-friendly moves 🍵 After Taichi We’ll stroll to Peacefood Cafe for a complimentary cup of homemade chai, and lighthearted mingling. (Breakfast not included, but you’re welcome to order your own!) ✨ No experience needed — just come as you are. Slow down, breathe deep, and start your Saturday with movement + chai ☕️+ connection! 🧘‍♀️ This is a community-based, donation-supported event hosted by friends of the Veggie Chi collective. 💛 All donations go toward space rental, refreshments, materials, and supporting the continuation of these gatherings.
