Our teacher, Judy, starts off with a short warmup of ancient, gentle Qi Gong stretches with intriguing names like Buddha Picks Up the Earth, and Picking Up a Feather. Then we progress for the next 45 minutes to the series of 19 continuous movements and one pose, the complete T’ai Chi Chih (pronounced tie-chee-chuh) practice.

From its orange pendant lights to the old-timey wall decor, the Pacific Cafe is a testament to the Outer Richmond neighborhood of the 1970s. The seafood restaurant has stayed almost unchanged throughout its 49 years of business and will be celebrating its 50th birthday in 2024. Moreover, the Pacific Cafe’s history has earned a spot on the City’s Legacy Business list.
Starting next year, another weekend of August concerts will be held at the Polo Field in Golden Gate Park following the Outside Lands Music Festival if the San Francisco Board of Supervisors green-lights the proposal in September.
