Duration
10 Weeks
The classes are co-operative rather than competitive - there are no grades or belts to achieve, and the emphasis is on small amounts of regular practice. A new ‘posture' is learned every week - in Tai Chi this is a series of fluid, flowing movements rather than a static pose. We repeat the posture the following week, and when everyone feels sure they have remembered it, we add on another. Suitable for: People of all ages and abilities can benefit from Tai Chi.

Course programme
Although Tai Chi can eventually be used in self-defence, and our classes incorporate some of the practical applications, it is initially practiced for its health-giving benefits. It is particularly useful for calming the mind and body, increasing alertness and body awareness, and for developing concentration and sensitivity. Tai Chi helps with balance and posture, and most students report a greater sense of ‘groundedness'.
What equipment do I need?
Just loose comfortable clothing is all you really need to start Tai Chi. Eventually, you may like to obtain the canvas-soled Tai Chi shoes that we wear in class.
