Welcome to Circle of Chi!

Tai' Chi Gung Oro Valley


We are so pleased you have discovered the Circle of Chi community, and the Tai Chi Gung classes.

You now have access to the teachers in your part of the world.

Does Tai Chi Gung really benefit you?

It is working for thousands of people in our Circle of Chi community of more than thirty countries around the world.

Tai Chi Gung was originally shared from Master to Student in unbroken lineage of 3,300 years, yet classes are now opening to a larger awakening populace due to cosmic need.

What matters most is that it is now offered to you through qualified teachers trained by Master Lamas from the 3,300-year-old Darchan Lamasery, in Tibet.

Standing Exercises:

Is for those who can stand comfortably for an hour using simple exercises that stimulate all muscles, ligaments, and tendons in the physical body.

Sitting Exercises:

These exercises called “The Emperor’s Choice” were originally taught to Emperor Chen in China, which added 30+ years to his troubled, dying body.  These exercises give strength to the body as in the standing exercises but are used for those who cannot stand for a period of one hour.

Judith and Tom Simmons from Circle of Chi

After decades of meditation and soul searching and discovery, Tom and Judith thrill in helping others to awaken to Tai Chi Gung and the benefits of moving the Chi energy throughout the body (often for healing) and then sending it out into the universe.

The peace of mind, and spiritual and physical healing has been a wonder to behold.  Would you like to join us?

Boganathar from India (whom the Chinese named Lao Tzu) created these classes that are used in every class, inspired from the movement of mother nature.  You move your body with these simple exercises without sweat and strain, which do not push you to move more than you are able.

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!
