Rooted in resilience is vital for understanding the changes that we go through life. This interactive workshop invites participants to explore the art of resilience through the ancient practices of tai chi & qigong, meditation and community singing. Together, we will cultivate inner joy, harmony with mind and body balance. Tai Chi and Qigong’s gentle, flowing movements harmonise body and mind, while guided meditation strengthens emotional clarity and center the spirit. Participants will leave not only with practical techniques and information but also with a deeper sense of empowerment and community connection.
