Course Description

Tai Chi, short for T'ai Chuan or Tai ji quan, is an internal Chinese martial art practiced for both its defense training and its health benefits. The term Taiji refers to a philosophy of the forces of yin and yang, which are related to the moves. If you're looking for a way to reduce stress, consider Tai Chi, as it combines both spirituality and healthy movement meditation. All poses are slow and steady movements with unstoppable Qi - the internal energy. This class will both strengthen your body and calm your mind. Wear comfortable shoes! Space is limited.
