This workshop will be both theory and practice based, using foundations of Baguazhang martial arts in an internal, self-healing practice. Participants will explore how to heal intergenerational trauma, gain tools for grounding, and contextualize the symptoms that affect our communities, such as anxiety, depression, low immunity, divisiveness, and burn out.
WHAT TO EXPECT: A one hour theory and movement-based workshop, appropriate for all levels. No special materials or props are needed. There will be basic standing postures taught, and skills provided to continue your connective practice beyond the workshop.
