Tai Chi for Beginners: 13-Minute Gentle Qi Gong & Tai Chi Flow

Tai Chi for beginners doesn't have to be complicated, this 13-minute gentle Qi Gong and Tai Chi flow is the perfect way to start your practice. Master Teacher Lee Holden guides you through a deeply relaxing, moving meditation that combines the energy-gathering power of Qi Gong with the graceful, flowing movements of Tai Chi. In this easy-to-follow routine, you will learn classic Tai Chi movements like "Parting the Wild Horse's Mane," "Repulse the Monkey," and "Cloudy Hands." By moving slowly and mindfully, these exercises act as "brain gymnastics," building new neurological connections while melting away mental stress and physical tension. Whether you are a senior looking for a low-impact mobility routine, or a beginner wanting to cultivate your life force energy (Qi), this hybrid flow will leave you feeling grounded, aligned, and deeply peaceful. Qi Gong teaches you to feel the river of energy; Tai Chi teaches you how to swim in it. Start your daily practice with our free two-week class trial in our link in bio.
