Moving Meditation: Tai Chi, Qi Gong, and Yoga Nidra Foundations with Nicola Kilyushik

August 16 @ 10:00 am 11:30 am


August 16 @ 10:00 am 11:30 am


RDAAM is proud to partner again with Nicola Lea Kilyushik for an expanded foundational movement class.

Experience 90 minutes of mindful movement, breath awareness, and deep relaxation, integrating the healing foundations of Qi Gong, Tai Chi, and Yoga Nidra.

This immersive session invites you to reconnect with your body and mind through gentle, intentional practices:

  • Qi Gong cultivates and circulates vital life energy (qi) through slow, flowing movements and breathwork to support balance, vitality, and calm.
  • Tai Chi builds on this foundation with graceful, choreographed sequences known as “forms” that promote coordination, focus, and inner strength.
  • Yoga Nidra, or “yogic sleep,” is a guided meditation designed to bring the body into deep rest while keeping the mind alert, enhancing self-awareness, stress relief, and emotional clarity.

Together, these complementary practices support physical well-being, reduce stress and anxiety, improve sleep, and foster greater creativity and intuition.

Please dress comfortably in clothes that allow free movement. Bring a yoga mat and any supports (like a blanket or cushion) you may need to feel grounded and at ease.

Please note guests are welcome to bring water however, no other beverages or food are permitted in the museum galleries.

All experience levels are welcome—from first-time participants to seasoned practitioners.

A diagonal, side shot of a sculpture. The focal point of the photo is a bronze sculpture of a muscular, male figure wearing a mountain lion skull. He is doing a ballet pose, lifting his furtherest away arm up with his wrist bent, and lifting his closest arm out and toward us with a pointed index finger. His closest leg is also lifted toward us. The background is blurred but we can still make out the main gallery of the museum with colorful paintings on the wall, a sloped ceiling, and entries to other small galleries.
