Meet Your Teacher

Carrie Murray: Certified Tai Chi Gung Instructor

"I'm Carrie Murray. Being a student of meandering the river of life has taken me many places. I’ve had the adventure of raising 3 boys, and I am also a gardener and a seeker. Along the way, I discovered I like to teach. I have been a personal trainer since 2002.

In 2020 I was introduced to a gentle yoga practice that combined my love of the earth, my drive to learn deeper truth, my teaching skills, and my choice to take good care of my physical body. It is called Tai Chi Gung…..Grand, Supreme Energy for the Body Temple.

This practice has maintained its purity for over 3,000 years and has proven, over and over again, its ability to help the body and create more peace within yourself.  I have also learned there is a Tai Chi Gung way to do everything. This is what I am here to learn, practice and teach. I have discovered a depth to myself I did not expect.

As I practice daily, it is continually expanding my understanding about what being human really means. There is a standing set of exercises. A seated set is also available if you are more comfortable starting there. I look forward to introducing these simple exercises to you. Don’t worry. You won’t sweat! 

No special equipment is needed. Comfortable street clothes are fine. Bring only your curiosity and willingness to take better care of yourself inside and out."

Can I Join a Class Anytime?

Lao Tzu created a series of warm ups and 4 basic Standing Exercises that are the core of every class. These are simple moving and breathing exercises that help students feel the life energy of Nature directly. Almost 90% of students feel it in their very first class.

Whether you have been studying 6 minutes, 6 months or 6 years, you do the simple movements you learned in your very first class. They serve as an outline, and each student connects in their own way.

Because we don't hold back exercises, and they remain consistent, new students can join a live class any time. You'll feel right at home!

What Should I Wear?

Comfortable street clothes are fine. The class is done standing up, and it's so gentle you won't break a sweat!

I'll return your call as soon as I'm able to. In case you missed it above, we've found that the quickest way to figure out if you like Tai Chi Gung is to take a live class.
