Emotional Integration • June 17-21 with Galali
Galali will sing into a Turkish A-frame hand drum as you journey deep into your
inner soul finding clarity for the Self. Galali then allows space so you can see how
life really is. Together we will create the psychological structure so you can feel safe
in giving yourself some undivided attention. Engaging directly with our emotions
as we stay focused on what is wanting to be expressed through the challenges
you are experiencing in life. From this place of clarity you will truly know what
has been programmed into you. Emotional Integration brings gentle awareness,
like a flashlight, to the shadow aspects of repressed emotional energy so we stop
distracting ourselves from what we truly feel. Listen to her on iTunes • Interview on YouTube

KOOTENAY LAKE TAI CHI SUMMER CAMP

August 13-19 • Saturday to Friday
Six Days for $635 (early rate) includes:
Instruction, free Camping and MEALS!
(Regular rate after July 23 • $650)
Hajime leading the 2015 class
Tai Chi is a beautiful art of flowing body movements. It is a system of body/
mind exercise that will improve your health, energy level and relationships.
The slow graceful forms of this system bring the body’s functions into harmony and calm the mind, making your life more efficient and peaceful. Tai Chi
practice promotes sensitivity and calm control in all situations.
Tai Chi Forms: Beginners will be introduced to a simple Tai Chi short form that
will give them the feeling of the basic principles, posture, flow and energetics.
Intermediate and Advanced students will have form-improvement sessions
that are not style-dependent. They will also have the option to study fan
forms, weapons and Tai Chi partner sets and Push Hands.
Qi Gong: All retreat participants can share in the morning and evening Qi
Gong sessions. Qi Gong exercises are the foundation of a healthy, vital life.
They are the core foundation of the Tai Chi practice.
River Dragon Chi Massage: Arnold will lead us through an easy, clothes-on,
massage form in the evenings to relax and replenish us at the end of the day.
In accordance with the healing aspects of Tai Chi, the camp provides healthy,
delicious food and plenty of time for relaxing. Enjoy nature, friendships and
swimming in the lake.
