TAI CHI AND QIGONG EXPERIENCE
Ellen Wahl, founder of Tai Chi With Ellen LLC, has been a tai chi and qigong practitioner for over 35 years. She studied at a local tai chi and qigong center for over 18 years. For 13 of those years Ellen deepened her understanding of tai chi and qigong by teaching advance students. Then she taught independently for 5 years at a city recreation center. In 2018 Ellen attended Wudang Baqua Internal Cultivation Retreat with Master Bing (Zhong Xue Chao) from Wudang Mountain in China, the birthplace of tai chi and Chinese qigong. She continues to practice with other tai chi practitioners as well as teach tai chi and qigong to individuals and small groups.
TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
Someone once commented to Ellen, “Tai chi is woven into your being.” Ellen's commitment to practice has enabled her to unite with her tai chi and qigong. Her focus is on personalized learning whether instructing for individuals or small groups. As your teacher Ellen's main goal will be to provide high quality, clear instruction for each movement so that you will gain confidence to practice on your own. When you practice regularly, you will build body memory. Over time, the postures will become second nature and you will experience the full benefits of tai chi and qigong. Tai chi can be woven into your being also.
PREVIOUS PROFESSIONAL TEACHING
Teaching has been Ellen's profession and joy. She was an art teacher for many years in addition to teaching tai chi and qigong. Teaching art was a demanding profession. Fortunately Ellen was able to rely on her tai chi and qigong practice as a way to calm her mind and body so that she could meet the needs of over 600 students each year. Tai chi and qigong was Ellen's go to modality. For this reason she continues to find joy in teaching tai chi and qigong, even though Ellen has left the art teaching profession.
HEALTH AND WELLNESS
Ellen has spent most of her life focused on health and wellness. She has benefited from numerous healing modalities in addition to her practice of tai chi and qigong. For Ellen there is no one magical means to complete health and well-being. It is an ongoing process of listening to her own body and allowing her aches and pains to guide her to what she needs. Be true to oneself. Self-love leads to self-care.
Why would Ellen choose tai chi and qigong if there are other healing modalities? She can rely on tai chi and qigong for self-care anywhere, at any time and without any equipment. Ellen only needs to make an appointment with herself. She is able to find relief from her discomfort. Often after doing tai chi and qigong Ellen feels relaxed and rejuvenated as if she has returned from a pristine beach.
