From the reviews
Taking Kristy's Tai Chi class has been a game-changer for my exercise routine. At first, I didn't realize I was exercising, but the next day's soreness made me aware that I was working my muscles. As I continued, I noticed my muscles evolving and becoming more flexible.
Kristy Putnam uses her remarkable teaching abilities to help people learn to take great care of themselves through the gentle and powerful practice of Tai Chi Easy and Qigong. Kristy is a master teacher in every sense of the term.
My husband and I have been taking Kristi’s Tai Chi class for about a month now. It has improved my balance, calmness and I’m realizing how the breathing and meditation exercises can be healing for the body.
This class has been a wonderful experience! Kristy is a great teacher, and I have been able to use some of the techniques I've learned for stress reduction at work and relaxation in my daily life. I would totally recommend this class to everyone!
Your first tai chi class at LifeCraft Wellness WellBeing LifeStyle Medicine and Business Consulting
Nervous about walking into a tai chi class for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good instructors expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a gentle warm-up, then learning a few slow movements of the form, step by step — no pressure to get it perfect, and you can rest or sit whenever you need to. What to wear: loose, comfortable clothing you can move in, and flat, flexible shoes (some studios practice in socks or bare feet). What to bring: water, and that's about it — there's no equipment to buy. Arrive a few minutes early to say hello to the instructor and mention it's your first class. It comes together faster than you'd think — most people feel far more at ease by their second or third visit.
