Tai Chi and Meditation Weekend at St. Mary’s Sewanee

The programme connects quiet sitting with the practical details of movement: stance, the waist and responding to another person. Beginners can explore these foundations alongside continuing practitioners.

Practise standing and movement skills, return to seated meditation, and explore light two-person exercises involving touch. Both beginners and experienced participants are welcome. Teaching runs Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday morning, with breaks and shared meals. This is the retreat’s specific tai chi and meditation programme; continuous silence is not advertised on the current host page.
