There is a special qi gong (pronounced Chi Gong) yoga class being offered at the Living Theatre right now on Friday evenings at 5pm, through the month of February. The instructor is artist and performer Kennedy Yanko. She has studied and continues to work privately with her sifu (which means teacher in Chinese) since she was 15. She is also a member and performer at the Living Theatre. She incorporates yoga and qi gong for the practice of the class. Her teacher bio is here.
She writes: “I think it’s important that EVERYONE gets an opportunity to try yoga and qi gong. There’s a donation bowl but it’s just there, the class is free. The classes are held on set of The Living Theatre’s latest production, Korach. It’s a beautiful desert setting with a replica of Mt. Sinai and a never ending horizon.”
FREE // Fridays 5-6:30p // 21 Clinton St.
I have taken classses with Kennedy Yanko. Her classes are incredible. I can’t believe that she is offering free classes. I really like the way she combiines Yoga and QiGong. She is a great teacher teaching an incredible art.
