Combine the beauty of sun, sand and surf with a relaxing retreat from your daily routine and practice of yoga, tai chi, chi kung and guided meditation. There are five two hour classes beginning Friday evening and ending Sunday at noon. Plus you'll enjoy time to stroll on the boardwalk and the beach, and explore the quaint town of Ocean Grove New Jersey.

There's no prior experience necessary – if you’re new to tai chi, chi kung and/or dao yin yoga you’ll learn the basics and experience enough to realize if it's for you. Those of you who have been practicing will deepen your understanding and experience.

On the beach, the boardwalk and in the tree shaded parks...

• yoga for flexibility, strength and to heighten mind/body awareness

• chi kung to further enhance internal energy

• tai chi for balance, strength and awareness through movement

People say....
"I always find the experience relaxing and beneficial to my well being.  It allows me to get more one on one and learn from others of different experiences and to see how much I have progressed."

"Practicing in different environments outdoors was stimulating and invigorating."

"Since I've been only practicing Tai-Chi for less than 3 months, I learned a lot. This weekend, I improved the way I do my form, I've learned more of the form and I felt more grounded when I was doing it."

"I was going to get you a Thank You card just to say Thank you for giving me the opportunity of being at this Retreat, but there was a thunderstorm today ... so I just want to say that I've enjoyed this so much that I look forward to next September!"

"Great weekend as always...  focusing for a few days on Tai-chi does seem to pull things together for me.  It allowed me to focus on the full form, rather than just the individual paragraphs, which compliments the weekly classes very well."

"This past weekend was a wake up call to my body, mind and spirit .The combination of tai chi, beautiful beaches and a fabulous unexpected fireworks show made the 2 days a feast for the senses."

"If someone wanted to have 2 days to calm their stressed out city life I highly recommend investing the time."

"...to learn something so beautiful, graceful and beneficial. I was sincerely surprised at how many muscles I never knew existed from what seemed to be such simple moves."
