Curriculum
We offer beginning classes to get you started and then a series of classes that further the teachings of Professor Cheng ManChing’s 37 position form.
Beginning Tai Chi - Relaxing with Chi is designed to revitalize and energize you. We will focus on Tai Chi principles through easy to follow movements, meditation, and breath awareness. The form is taught in 30-36 one-hour classes, divided into B-1, B2- and B-3. We teach the entire sequence of movements, where the hands go, where the feet go, and the principles (softness, straightness, relaxation) that makes doing the movements worthwhile. Each class hour provides teacher demonstrations, lots of practice repetitions, individual adjustments, verbal guidance, and social interaction.
