Thursday Night Tai Chi Offers a Calmer Way to Move in Sonoma

Experience the gentle, flowing movements of Yang-style Tai Chi every Thursday evening at the Sonoma Community Center.

 

This meditative practice is designed to enhance balance, reduce stress, and restore energy.

 

Open to all levels, including beginners, the class offers a welcoming environment for those seeking to cultivate harmony of mind, body, and spirit.

 

Led by Rie Casale, an instructor with over eight years of experience in Tai Chi, the sessions draw from the teachings of Master Choy and are influenced by the Integral Way Tai Chi under Kenn Chase.

 

Rie is dedicated to sharing the art of Tai Chi, promoting mindfulness and well-being among students of all levels.

 

Classes are held every Thursday from 5:00 PM to 6:30 PM in Room 213, the Dance Studio at the Sonoma Community Center, located at 276 East Napa Street, Sonoma, CA 95476.

 

Each session is priced at $5, payable at the door, with additional donations appreciated to support the program.

 

Participants are encouraged to wear comfortable clothing and bring a water bottle.

 

No special equipment is required.
