Qigong was recommended to Layla in 2019 as a way to manage and heal a chronic health condition. She became a certified Qigong instructor in 2021. Since then she has been teaching and sharing the benefits of health qigong, an integral part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), with the Park City community. Layla holds an MS in Gerontology from the University of UT, with an emphasis in adult education & developmental growth in the second half of life and taught at the Osher Institute at the U of U, a national organization for older learners. Teaching qigong feels like the next step in her personal calling for sharing the possibilities of continued expansion and growth in later life.
