SUMMARY:T'ai Chi
DESCRIPTION:Free Tai Chi Chih/Qigong classes will be taught in Congress Square Park May through September. All classes will occur twice weekly — on Mondays from 9:30 until 10:30 am and Wednesdays from 10 until 11 am\, led by \nSara Leonard.\n\nOld pros and those who have just started practice\, as well as curious bystanders of all ages welcome!\nAlways FREE to the public.\n\n*What’s Tai Chi?*\nTai chi is an ancient Chinese tradition that\, today\, is practiced as a graceful form of exercise. It involves a series of movements performed in a slow\, focused manner and accompanied by deep breathing.\nA noncompetitive\, self-paced system of gentle physical exercise and stretching\, each posture flows into the next without pause\, ensuring that your body is in constant motion.\nTai chi is low impact and puts minimal stress on muscles and joints\, making it generally safe for all ages and fitness levels. In fact\, because tai chi is a low-impact exercise\, it may be especially suitable if you’re an older adult who otherwise may not exercise.\n

SUMMARY:Intentional Listening Session
DESCRIPTION:Join artist\, educator\, and play facilitator Genevieve Victoria Casale Johnson for a 45 minute intentional listening practice in Congress Square Park. This collective exercise leads participants through a practice of observing and documenting the variety of sounds in the park using creative methods. Participants are encouraged to document their experience with words\, images\, textures\, and materials. Please feel free to bring along any materials you like to work with.\n\nIntentional Listening Practices are part of Sounds of Congress Square Park\, an exploratory investigation of sound in public space to encourage individual and collective mindfulness that will culminate in an archive of experiences.\n\nMore about Sounds of Congress Square Park: As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic\, much of the public will spend this summer reintroducing themselves to public life. Stay at home orders\, quarantining\, closure of many businesses and indoor public spaces means outdoor public spaces are both in high demand and potentially threatening to certain groups of people. How and where do people reintroduce themselves to these spaces? Sounds of Congress Square park offers individuals an opportunity to re-engage in a public space slowly and deliberately. The cumulative results of this mindfulness practice will become an archive of experiences of being in the park.

SUMMARY:Intentional Listening Session
DESCRIPTION:Join artist\, educator\, and play facilitator Genevieve Victoria Casale Johnson for a 45 minute intentional listening practice in Congress Square Park. This collective exercise leads participants through a practice of observing and documenting the variety of sounds in the park using creative methods. Participants are encouraged to document their experience with words\, images\, textures\, and materials. Please feel free to bring along any materials you like to work with.\n\nIntentional Listening Practices are part of Sounds of Congress Square Park\, an exploratory investigation of sound in public space to encourage individual and collective mindfulness that will culminate in an archive of experiences.\n\nMore about Sounds of Congress Square Park: As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic\, much of the public will spend this summer reintroducing themselves to public life. Stay at home orders\, quarantining\, closure of many businesses and indoor public spaces means outdoor public spaces are both in high demand and potentially threatening to certain groups of people. How and where do people reintroduce themselves to these spaces? Sounds of Congress Square park offers individuals an opportunity to re-engage in a public space slowly and deliberately. The cumulative results of this mindfulness practice will become an archive of experiences of being in the park.
