Chi Walking

On Wednesdays at 10:30 am from October 9 through November 6 (no meeting October 16), join Certified Chi Walking Instructor Michael Weintraub for Chi Walking sessions. In this workshop, we rebuild your walking form from the ground up – through aligning yourself, engaging your core, creating balance, and focusing – as well as a lot of tips along the way. This class presents all of the foundation elements of the Chi Walking approach so that upon completion the student will be able to implement it into his or her walking program. Michael will demonstrate and guide students through active exercises and drills as they experience the five steps of mindful walking: alignment, core engagement, balance, making a choice and moving forward.

• Introduction to the ChiWalking approach

• Pre-walk looseners
