At Rising Moon Tai Chi School, we believe that Tai Chi and Qigong are more than just forms of movement—they are a way to nurture balance, mindfulness, and wellbeing in every aspect of life. Since our founding in 2015, we have grown into a vibrant community where students of all ages and abilities can explore these ancient arts in a supportive and welcoming environment.
Our values are at the heart of everything we do. Respect, patience, and encouragement form the foundation of our teaching philosophy. We honor the unique journey of each student, fostering a culture where learning is collaborative, curiosity is celebrated, and progress is recognized—no matter how small it may seem. Kindness and integrity guide our interactions, creating a space where everyone feels seen, valued, and inspired to grow.
Engagement at Rising Moon Tai Chi is not just about showing up to class. Our students actively participate in a variety of ways: from learning and practicing traditional forms like Beijing 24 and 42 Form, to experiencing the meditative qualities of Qigong, to joining group demonstrations at our Festivals and community events. Classes are designed to be inclusive, offering guidance for beginners while challenging more advanced practitioners. This ensures that every student can progress at their own pace while enjoying the shared energy of a group practice. Social connection is also encouraged through informal gatherings and group activities, fostering friendships that often extend beyond the studio.
Joining Rising Moon Tai Chi is a choice to invest in yourself—physically, mentally, and emotionally. Students experience improved flexibility, strength, balance, and posture, while also cultivating focus, calm, and resilience in everyday life. For those seeking a sense of community, our school provides a warm and supportive environment where lifelong friendships flourish. Whether your goal is to relieve stress, enhance fitness, explore traditional Chinese arts, or simply connect with like-minded people, Rising Moon Tai Chi offers a path that is both meaningful and accessible.
At Rising Moon Tai Chi School, we don’t just teach Tai Chi—we invite you to become part of a journey that integrates movement, mindfulness, and connection. Here, every step, every posture, and every breath is an opportunity to grow, to find balance, and to celebrate the joy of being part of a caring and dedicated community.
