Lincoln Center Presents: Tai Chi With Raymond Li

July 24 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Free

Presented in collaboration with NewYork-Presbyterian, the Official Hospital of Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts

Join Raymond Li, founder of Manhattan Tai Chi, for a restorative workshop rooted in the ancient Chinese practice of Tai Chi, brought to life with live traditional music. Accompanied by the sounds of the dizi, played by Yimin Miao, and the pipa, played by Zhou Yi, this immersive experience invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and move with intention. Through gentle, flowing movements and focused attention on breath, participants will explore the core principles of Tai Chi while building balance, flexibility, and strength. This practice supports both physical and mental well-being, helping to reduce stress, restore energy, and cultivate a greater sense of calm and resilience. Suitable for all ages and experience levels, this welcoming workshop offers a chance to reconnect with your body, quiet your mind, and move through space with greater ease and awareness. This is a Relaxed Performance.

From NewYork-Presbyterian, the Official Hospital of Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts:
Rooted in mindfulness, Tai Chi has been shown to reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, says Dr. Michela Isono, an integrative medicine physician at NewYork-Presbyterian and Weill Cornell Medicine. It has also been linked to lower blood pressure, better balance and joint health, and improved sleep and memory. So come support your mind-body health and experience Tai Chi’s restorative power by joining us at this low-impact workshop designed for all ages.
