Beginning Tai Chi: Sundays 6:00 - 7:00 PM

This Tai Chi class is geared towards students just starting their Tai Chi journey. From 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM we will cover Qi Gong warm ups and part one of the Yang Family Traditional Tai Chi form. This class is ideal for students new to Tai Chi and students hoping to get more comfortable with part one of the form. The cost for this class will be $10 for each class attended on a drop-in basis.

Advanced Tai Chi: Sundays 7:00 - 8:00 PM

This Tai Chi class is for students that are already comfortable with part one, and looking to go farther in their Tai Chi practice. The advanced class is open to all students who have studied with me in the past and are looking for further instruction. There will be students of multiple levels in the class. We will add new movements, and review content as needed to keep each student in the class progressing. The cost for this class will be $10 for each class attended on a drop-in basis.
