Classes & Times

Dana-Farber Cancer Institute

Join our free Moving Meditation and Qigong/Tai Chi classes for all staff, patients, and caregivers within the Partners Healthcare Association. Harmonize your body, mind, energy, and spirit through a combination of meditation and breathing techniques, Qigong, yoga, and Tai Chi. Our instructor, Ramel Rones, is one of the world's foremost Qigong experts. During each high-spirited session, Rami leads the group in a series of physical movements, as in a standard exercise class, but adds mind-body visualization into the therapeutic mix. Patients credit Qigong with easing tired muscles, reducing stress, and boosting the immune system, as well as keeping spirits up during treatment. 

Tai Chi and Meditation Classes: Tuesdays from 3:00pm to 4:30pm, and Fridays 11:30am to 1:00pm.

Qigong and Meditation Classes: Tuesdays from 4:30pm to 6:00pm and Fridays from 10:00am to 11:30am 

All classes are held in the Smith Building, Room 330, right next to the information booth and just outside the connection to the new Yawkey Center Building, on the 3rd floor.

Please register with The Zakim Center at 617-632-3322 or when you walk in. If the class has to move on a particular day, signs will be posted on the entrance to the conference room. For more information, email: Zakim_Center@dfci.harvard.edu or call the number above.
