Summer Oldstice
*new date! This Saturday July 11th

The original date in June was rainy.. I mean it’s been SO rainy! Lots of outdoor plans have had to be rescheduled or cancelled, so here we are, hopefully for a good stretch for the annual Mountain View Pistons car show hosted by Uptowne Olds ☀️🚘

The date change unfortunately means we will not be offering festival hair, but we’ll be open!! Perk coffee will be on, cups of kombucha will be $1 off, we have samples of Monika Scott and Robyn Mair dishwasher tabs to give to the first 25 guests, we have a door prize to enter with purchase + we are a stop for the Roam the Chrome scavenger hunt!

Come explore our cool Main Street neighborhood this Saturday! There will be classic cars, pancakes, sidewalk sales + so many cool things happening at participating businesses!

Welcoming Josie Sarita!! She is guiding this weekend’s Sunday Session with a fresh offering- Qi-Gong!!

‘After exploring acupuncture, biofeedback and osteopathy to address what was defined as “adrenal fatigue “about 15 years ago, I started a deep dive into what I could do for myself to bring balance back into my life, without medicating. Qi Gong was suggested to me by the Traditional Chinese Medicine doctorwhom I was seeing at the time. Little did I know just how deep I would delve into this ancient Chinese healing art.

Fast forward to present day- I have completed two teaching certifications and on the tail end of finishing another. In between, I have also been fortunate to learn from many other renowned teachers, exploring different styles and lineages. And the learning continues…

So, what is it? The very rough translation goes something like this:
Qi = Vital Energy
Gong (stemming from the same root as “Kung” fu) = Skill or Cultivation
Therefore…
Qi Gong is the “skill of cultivating vital energy”. Some refer to it as “the mother of Tai Chi Chuan”- a style of internal martial arts.

I started sharing Qi Gong this past fall and am grateful to be offering it through Amy and Olds Town Square a couple of times this summer. The two sessions will be a mix of simple, yet powerful movements that I have put together, borrowing from different teachers and styles, including a few movements from traditional forms. They are suitable for all abilities! Although Qi Gong is usually a standing practice, the classes can be easily modified for anyone preferring to do all or even part of it seated in a chair.

I look forward to playing with you soon!’ Josie
