Join Maria Chowdhury of Path with Harmony Qigong for a free 4-week outdoor Qigong series this August in the beautiful Lower Ramble of downtown Fayetteville.

Qigong is a gentle, meditative movement practice that cultivates your life force energy (Qi) through breath, intention, and graceful, accessible movement. These sessions offer a peaceful way to connect with your body, calm your mind, and feel more alive, and surround yourself in the beauty of nature and community.

This standing practice includes warm-ups, stretches, and meditative movement, and can be adapted for seated practice based on your comfort and needs.

Let’s flow together—because every movement is a step toward more grace, ease, and joy in your life.

All ages and experience levels are welcome. Come as you are—no special clothing or equipment needed. Let’s breathe, move, and cultivate harmony together with feet on the earth under the open sky.

I look forward to practicing with you!
