Create space for your spirit to thrive
Have you felt this way:
- your job or to-do list is the center of your life.
- you have no feeling of purpose or that you've lost a lot of the joy you used to feel
- your spark and curiosity are missing
- you feel over or under emotional and have a lack of emotional connection?
- you feel chronic tension in places and flaccidity in others
- you are tired, irritated, and done.
I felt all of this.
And you can read more of my story here.
But even better, I'd love you to try the practice of Taiji and see if you notice your own shift.
Here's how this practice drops you right into the center of your life. Try this movement with me. Notice the subtle shift that takes place. If you can do it in this short video, you can do it in the rest of your life.
UPCOMING WORKSHOPS AND COURSE SERIES
A meaningful practice goes beyond the physical movement. You have to be moved in every way - physical, emotional and mental - in order for your spirit to thrive. Join me and connect to your own inner quiet and wisdom that comes from the full depth of a mindful movement practice.
FREE ONLINE COMMUNITY
The work we do to transform our lives cannot be done alone in isolation. We are rich resources that can learn, rely and share with each other. This is what the SWL Community is all about.
This is a free access online place to explore taiji (Tai Chi), qigong, meditation, and a special place for teachers.
I hope you join me there.

Hi!
My name is Lucy. And over 20 years ago, Taiji saved my life.
It shifted my perspective and brought awareness, clarity, and love. I am forever grateful.
I now teach these practices to anyone longing for genuine openness, ease, and a fulfilling life.
My guided meditations, easy to follow videos, understandable philosophy will gently shift you away from anger and guilt, releasing behavior that no longer serves you.
Taiji For Balance: Learn More“Lucy Bartimole changed my life. I initially came to Shift to work with Lucy for the physical benefits of tai chi, specifically balance and strength - both of which have increased over the past 3 years. However, along the way, I really began to learn and appreciate the other aspects of tai chi, specifically the mental and emotional aspects of tai chi. Learning how to pay attention to my breathing and listening my body has brought me mindfulness, an ability to choose to react (or not), and a sense of peace and connectedness to the world.”
