NOTE FOR TAI CHI FORMS
Tai Chi Forms are usually taught on the left side (first step is to the left).
I continue this tradition, however once students have learnt the Tai Chi Form on the left, I will offer to teach students the Form on the right side.
Combining both left and right sides not only helps with coordination and balance, but naturally doubles the length of the Form if done continuously left and right. For example by doing the 24 Form left and right, it becomes a 48 Form.
Course is held over multiple weeks: total 64 hours
NB: Course can be completed over alternative dates/sections as negotiated
Learn the most popular Tai Chi form: the 24 Form (Yang style) also called the Simplified Beijing 24.
It is recommended that students learn a short form or attend some casual classes prior to learning the Tai Chi Yang Style 24 Form as some prior Tai Chi experience would be highly beneficial to remember the moves.
Course includes learning the 8 Pieces of Bracade Qigong.
Course Offered on Request
Students can repeat courses. Repeat students will be provided additional instruction to refresh and refine their skill.
This is a Yang Style Tai Chi short form incorporating more movement and footwork than the Yang Style Tai Chi 8 Form.
This Form is not as popular or well known as the 8 or 24 Form, however it's a good next step up from the 8 Form if you're not quite ready for the Tai Chi 24 Form.
It incorporates Tai Chi walking and has 16 major moves (with transitions) compared to 8 major moves in the 8 Form or 24 major moves in the 24 Form.
Course includes learning the 8 Pieces of Brocade Qigong.
