The Chi Walking technique emphasizes walking form—the proper and effective biomechanics of walking and draws from the movement principles of Tai Chi to make walking easier on the body by promoting energy efficiency and injury prevention. How you walk dictates how stress moves through your body while walking. Discover how efficient walking techniques distribute less stress on your body. Through innovative walking drills and exercises you will learn and practice how to: develop and maintain good posture and use the power of your core to create smooth whole-body walking which reduces the stress and strain on your hips, back, legs, knees and feet. Learn how to use cadence, cooperate with the pull of gravity, engage efficient arm swing for different walking speeds, how to loosen joints for flexibility and more. The class is suitable for walkers and hikers of all conditioning and experience levels interested in enhancing the health benefits of walking and avoiding injury. The class format includes demonstration, short walking practice sessions, and Q & A/ rest breaks.
