Relax & Reconnect with This 25-Minute Full Body Tai Chi Routine

Want to learn Tai Chi & Qigong but don't know where to start? Start your journey here👉 https://www.skool.com/rootedalchemy 🌱 Today's Practice: Today you’ll combine a gentle Tai Chi warm-up with Tai Chi stick training. The warm-up gradually prepares the joints and whole body through grounding, ankle and knee movements, waist turns, shoulder rolls, opening and closing, and arm swings. You’ll then use a Tai Chi stick, or something similar like a rolling pin, to explore coordination, breath, posture, hand awareness, and whole-body connection. The practice finishes with gentle stick tapping to relax and reconnect with the body. 00:00 - 00:33 Introduction 00:33 - 12:08 Tai Chi Warm-Up 12:08 - 25:30 Tai Chi Stick Life has a way of pulling our attention in a hundred different directions. The challenge is that many people experience these moments of calm during a practice session, but struggle to make them part of everyday life. What you need isn't another random follow along video on YouTube. What you need is a clear, guided path so you can: • Know what to work on next • Stay consistent • Build momentum in your practice Videos can be a great starting point, but without a clear path and structure, it's easy to fall off track. When your practice becomes irregular, it's much harder to experience the positive changes these arts can offer.

I am a Tai Chi/Qigong practitioner and teacher with over 15 years of dedicated study, beginning in Southern California with Praying Mantis Kung Fu and Yang Style Tai Chi, and later continuing in Seattle under Andrew T. Dale, where I immersed myself in Chen Style Tai Chi, Bagua Zhang, and the internal principles that still guide my practice today. In 2007, I moved to Beijing, China, spending eight years training intensively with masters Zhang Wei Dong and Liu Zu Guang, refining my Tai Chi, Bagua Zhang, internal body mechanics, and traditional training methods while also studying Shuai Jiao and Da Bei Quan. During this time, I became the first foreigner awarded a Shuai Jiao Coach’s Certificate in China and co-founded the Guang Wu Shuai Jiao Association to help spread traditional Chinese martial arts internationally. My teaching emphasizes authentic Tai Chi and Qigong—rooted in structure, breath, intention, and internal alignment—to support sustainable practice, real skill development, and long-term vitality. Above all, stay rooted and remain open🌱
