Rising Routine- Tai Chi with Santos
Step into another way of calming the mind through the body with Tai Chi! Tai Chi is a Chinese martial art and system of calisthenics, consisting of sequences of very slow and controlled movements. It has become my Art, my dance, my play, my practice, my WAY of life and I hope to pass these “physical prayers” of self-transformation onto opens hearts. - Santos Soul
