Unifying movement, breath, and visualization Qi-Gong is a series of exercises to cultivate life force energy in the body. It is like physical therapy for the energy system. Increase vitality; improve posture; generate confidence; improve well-being and experience centeredness. Beginners welcome. 

Farcia De'Toles has coined the term Natural Rhythm Healing to describe her work. In its practice, Natural Rhythm Healing conscientiously embodies the breath through movement. Farcia's vision is to empower others with tools, through dance, movement, and healing therapies and to honor the spirit within. Her goal is to make the joy of movement accessible to all people, moving past health status, age, experience or body type through the low-impact practice of Nia and African Healing Dance. Farcia De’Toles, a native of Liberia, West Africa, learned the power of rhythm and its natural healing connection firsthand. With those memories deeply embedded in her spirit and combining her education, training, teaching and practice of dance, movement and massage, Farcia has infused this innate wisdom into her unique Natural Rhythm Healing Techniques since 2000. Farcia believes, like her ancestors believed, that dance is done with purpose. Nia, like African Dance, in its purest sense, is done with the intentions of healing and celebrating the mind, body, soul and community...all in a spirit of peace & harmony with oneself, the village and the universe.
