Tai Chi @CAM

Friday, 3/10/2023
9:00AM-9:50AM  
Attendance fee: $15.00

Instructor: Jay Stempin

Tai Chi, an internal martial art, is a self-healing modality with roots in the Yang, Chen, and Wu styles. This course is a Yang/Tso variation. Tai chi focuses on breathwork, balance, stability and artful movements. This course will improve posture and circulation, enhance mental wellness, stimulate purposeful movements, as well as massage organs.
Daily practice will further enhance core strength and flexibility, improve reaction-time, as well as develop an overall sense of calm and peace in life. Breathwork and flexibility through martial applications are the essence of why Tai Chi has been around for over two thousand years. It’s aptly named: The Grand Ultimate.
This course will guide you through fundamental empowering movements using single-weighted postures. The gentle sequence of steps will enrich and improve your life on mental and physical levels. Tai Chi, a lifelong learning tool, will present tools you can use to develop optimal health and wellness across your lifespan.

Native Wilmingtonian, Christa Faison, wears many hats as a minister, musician, educator, and so much more. Christa is a 2013 graduate of the University of North Carolina Wilmington, receiving a Bachelor’s of Music in Music Education as a North Carolina Teaching Fellows Scholar. While attending UNCW, Christa immersed herself in the heart and soul of the University, serving as the UNCW String Ensemble Principal violinist, Gospel Choir director and accompanist, member of the Wind Symphony and Chamber Singers, Resident Advisor, and the assistant director and arranger for the Seabelles Female A Capella Ensemble. Christa was awarded the UNCW Senior Medallion for her exemplary academic achievement, campus involvement, and community service.


Shortly after graduation, Christa began what has encompassed nearly a decade of a career in the education profession. Christa served as the Music Teacher at Snipes Academy of Arts and Design, teaching general music directing a very active Choral program, and founding and launching the first elementary Strings program for the New Hanover County School system. During her tenure, the Snipes Academy Chorus made several community appearances for various events such as the NC Azalea Festival, NHCS Board of Education, collaboration with the Williston Alumni Choir, UNCW’s Caterina Jarabo Symposium, Wilmington Opera Company, the 50th Anniversary of the Commemoration of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, JR., and many others. Under her direction, Snipes Academy of Arts and Design was represented first time and for two consecutive years at the NC Elementary Honors Chorus, as some of her Chorus students represented New Hanover County Schools at the NC Music Educators Association conference. Christa was voted Snipes Academy’s 2018-2019 Teacher of the Year and NHCS Teacher of the Year Finalist, and served as representative for District 2 through the North Carolina Music Educators Association (NCMEA).


Since then, Christa has furthered her post-graduate studies which include a Masters of Education in Music Education from Anderson University’s School of the Arts in Anderson, South Carolina with Magna Cum Laude Honors, and School Administration licensure from UNC Wilmington. Christa is the former Assistant Principal of New Hanover High School, and now serves as an Assistant Principal at John T. Hoggard High School and interim Supervisor of Arts Education for New Hanover County Schools.


As a free lance violinist, Christa is a member of various musical ensembles such as the Wilmington Symphony and Tallis Chamber Orchestras, Port City Music Festival, Arbor String Trio, and is often featured as a solo violinist for events within and beyond Southeastern NC. Christa loves to make music with her colleagues and friends, and is honored to have collaborated on projects and events with them such the Cucalorus Film Festival under the director of Bryan Putnam, Hurricane Florence Relief Benefit Concert under the direction of ElJaye Johnson and the Port City All-Stars, and New Hanover County’s Arts Benefit CD under the production of Trent Harrison and Hourglass Studios, Inc. Christa is also often found supporting other local initiatives whose mission is to strengthen our community, and promote the holistic education and betterment of our children.

This event is free to all ages.
