Join Zhijun "Sunny" Xu for an introductory outdoor Qigong and Tai Chi class at Johnston Public Library. The ancient practices of Tai Chi and Qigong combine slow, deliberate movements, mediation and breathing exercises. Tai Chi has been referred to as a scholar's martial art, so come prepared to use your brain as well as your body.
Sunny Zu is one of the successors of the sixth generation of traditional Wu-Style Tai Chi Chuan. He was the senior Tai Chi Chuan instructor of Beijing Yi-Ri Association for the Eastern Western Cultural Exchange. He began to practice Shaolin martial arts as a young boy. In 1996, he went to Guangfu, the birthplace of traditional Wu-Style Tai Chi Chuan and became a formal disciple to Mr. Zhong Zheshan, the grandmaster of the fifth generation. Sunny currently lives and teaches in the Des Moines area. Rain location for this free workshop is the Large Meeting Room at Johnston Public Library.
