Meditation and Movement Class ( M&M )
Our M&M Classes include Tai chi, Bagua, Xingi, Medical Qigong, White Tiger Iron Palm Percentage Breath Meditations, and Neuroplastic Meditation.
The Bible says in Genesis 2:7 "And the Lord God formed man out of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. " The Hebrew words for "breath of life" is Ruach ha Chodesh, which means Holy Divine Wind or Breath. This Divine Wind is referred to as the Spirit of God (Genesis 1:2).
The internal martial arts of Taiji, Bagua, Xingi, and the art of Medical Qigong, in my opinion, should be called the Science of Breath and Breathing. These internal arts have taken the Divine Wind or Life force mentioned in Genesis 2:7 and developed methods to utilize this creative force for the rejuvenation and healing of the body. The various techniques of these arts that we use not only heal the body, but also prevent the onset of disease and premature aging. Chronic ailments such as arthritis, coronary disease, chronic fatigue syndrome, diabetes, obesity, and various dysfunctions of internal organs respond dramatically to our breathing and movement methods.
When we are sick with chronic ailments, and even colds and the flu, our bodies are only doing what we tell it to do through our thought life and, most importantly, our emotional state. Most people whether they admit it or not, have trained their brains over the course of their lives to issue forth negative responses and thoughts 24/7 . This emotional state will eventually lead to a biological diseased state of the body. The Bible says, As a man thinketh, so is he. The brain is neuroplastic, we ourselves design it and are responsible for its structure. Neuroplasticity is the key to our salvation. We can re-train our brains, thereby restructuring our brains. Through proper meditation we can create new neuropathways and synaptic connections in our brains that will lead to thoughts of joy and peace, thereby creating a disease-free body. In our classes, we deal extensively with this new area of healing that some have called "Neurotheology" and "Neuroplasticity". It's new to us, but the Bible deals with it extensively.

Who can learn the internal martial arts?
The answer is anyone who can think and breathe. Of course, you should consult your physician before beginning any exercise program. The exercises and postures can be performed at any age, or handicap, whether standing (even with a walker or cane) or seated (either stationary, in a wheelchair or rolling in a wheelchair). Pregnant women can also benefit from these exercises as it is also good for the baby. Grand Master Adams has taught these movements and postures to recovering stroke victims at the Easter Seal Rehabilitation Center in Fairfield, Connecticut, as well as senior day care centers, and facilities for emotionally disturbed seniors and adults.
THE INTERNAL ARTS is a gentle approach to exercise and relaxation that is ideal for anyone. Many people who experience a lower level of fitness or general slow-down after surgery find the internal arts to be very empowering and uplifting. Tai chi has been practiced for many years as a stress-management technique to improve cancer survival. Here is a testimony of one lady, whom we will call "Mrs. K", a 46-year-old woman with multiple sclerosis and fibromyalgia. She said her breathing improved. “My energy is up, and my posture has gotten a lot better. I feel like I’ve accomplished something, and tai chi is easy—it’s fun,” she says. “The medical world should be aware that people need something like this.”
As you can see, the internal arts are open to anyone of any age who wants to maintain good health, heal their body of chronic ailments, and rid themselves of everyday stress, worry, and anxiety. Come join us!
