It’s my final Live Zoom from Oaxaca, Mexico for a while! Next month, I'll be coming to you live from Italy, so let's send off this Mexican chapter with some fun! 📅 When: Friday, May 22 at 6 PM Pacific (UTC-7) / 9 PM Eastern (UTC-4)📍 Where: Join the Zoom Meeting Here What to bring: - Your Questions: No question is too basic or too advanced. Whether it’s about a specific 24-form transition, how to move through the Qigong sequence, or getting comfortable teaching, we’ll cover it! - A Little Space to Move: I’m hoping to have a few of you volunteer to demonstrate a move or two! It’s a completely safe, supportive space to get some real-time feedback and fine-tune your alignment. I’m really looking forward to catching up with all of you, hearing about your recent wins, and helping you over any hurdles. See you on Friday!

Weekend practice in Long Beach with fellow Instructors. Good times.

​Hello Everyone, ​My name is Ashray Sood. ​A Brief History: I was born in India and raised in Kenya, and I lived in the UK and Canada during my university years. Having been born with severe eczema and bronchitis, it was traditional, classical Hatha Kriya Yoga that restored my health. Consequently, I became deeply interested in the spiritual sciences—specifically the internal arts. ​After living for two years at the Isha Yoga Centre, I now teach Yoga alongside other fitness modalities, including Pilates, Calisthenics, Mobility, and Power Bands. While it is incredibly rewarding to help people reclaim their health, I have noticed that in our modern, material world, few prioritize spiritual growth. For a long time, I felt a deep sense of something missing. Following an extensive search for that "missing piece," I discovered Tai Chi. ​I am very happy to be here and look forward to getting to know you all. ​Best Regards, ​Ashray Sood

👋🏽 I'm excited to be here and looking forward to moving through the SOHMA program! As a new Qigong instructor, I was in search of a community of folks who are committed to Qigong and Tai Chi. It has impacted my life in the best way, and I get the privilege of interacting with folks several times a week who are experiencing amazing benefits in the classes I get to lead. I can't say enough about how much I love this practice and now I get to expand my knowledge, experience and connections here. I'm tickled to be part of this community!
