Conscious Movement Across America is a grass-roots approach to self-healing and healing our communities. Our free Wellness Walks and accompanying workshops teach folks how to relieve stress and stimulate their body’s internal medicine through mind-body techniques like Tai Chi and Qigong. These arts are based on breath, movement and meditation. We aim to bring health, wellness and fellowship to all Americans across racial, economic and religious boundaries.
