Shoulders Down,
Inc. and Rising Phoenix T'ai Chi exist for the development and sharing of traditional T’ai Chi and Qi
Gong, as well as Movement Improvement T'ai Chi R and other programs to encourage
individuals in the ways of health and energy. We provide a wide range of specially designed classes, for men, women,
those who wish to build strength, those who wish to relax, those who wish to increase their own energy, boost their immune
systems, lighten their loads, and those who wish for all these things! Our classes can help ~~~~~ “Enhance
Your Everyday Life, Every Day.” tm~~~~~ Our Director is
Cate Morrill, who has been involved with T'ai Chi since 1988, and our Assistant Director is Harvey Meisner, who has been involved since 1996. We are also pleased to have other teachers and associates
with diverse backgrounds and talents to assist and teach classes.

Let's see what we can do together!
We offer programs in traditional T'ai Chi and Qi Gong for the general
population as well as special programs such as Seniors Tai Chi, for which we created "Movement Improvement T'ai Chi",
which is also an excellent program for those recovering from illness or injury. We provide Corporate exercise programs,
community programs, school programs and more for T'ai Chi in Atlanta and across the country!
So whether you are looking for traditional T'ai Chi 24, Qi Gong
sets, strength, balance, flexibility, or working with issues such as arthritis, sleeping difficulties, muscle
stiffness, osteoporosis, stress, or tension, looking to lose weight, or get healthier, perhaps we can help you along
your path. If you are looking for a safe, gentle yet effective exercise program, for beginners or more
advanced work, we will be glad to assist you.
Here at our studio and all around Atlanta, we teach programs
to help with all of those issues. Can't reach a program site? Then see what our DVD has to offer! Below is a sample video clip of our "Movement Improvement Tai Chi R" for Balance and Mobility" DVD, which is for all those seeking a GENTLE and SIMPLE, yet EFFECTIVE exercise
program, such as those beginning to exercise, Older Adults, Seniors, and more. This clip is also a taste of
what a class in the Movement Improvement T'ai Chi program is like.

The choices you make today may change the way you feel tomorrow. There are
ancient sayings, "The seeds you tend are the ones that grow" and "The best time to plant a fruit tree was twenty
years ago, but the second best time is today."
Let us help you plant and tend the seeds of health! Starting today, you can begin this healthful
work to help create calmness, relaxation, yet be full of energy, or as our Motto says...........
Refresh, Restore, Reinvigorate!
Through our classes and programs, in Atlanta and across the country, we help by providing tools to “Soothe
the Soul”, "Activate the Energy" and create health and positive energy in mind, body and spirit. “Shoulders down” is a phrase often used by T’ai Chi instructors to encourage students
to relax their shoulders, thereby immediately reducing stress and tension in their bodies, and then, in their minds and spirits.
"Shoulders down, energy UP"!
TEACHER TRAINING IS AVAILABLE!
