Beginning Tai Chi - Free Introductory Class

Some members have expressed interest in learning Tai Chi.  So this will be a free introductory class and a discussion of how to continue.

If you're thinking about coming, or can't make it but are interested, please register (button at left) so we can include you in our planning.  Only members can register, but each member is welcome to bring one guest.

Whether you’re interested in learning Tai Chi or are just intrigued by this gentle, exotic form of exercise, here’s your chance to find out more about it.

Tai Chi is a perfect way to improve your balance on a rolling deck or just stay in shape without too much sweating.  It improves balance, coordination, and internal strength and, according to Chinese practitioners, builds health and longevity.  And it looks way cool.

At this introductory class, the principles of Tai Chi will be discussed and you’ll learn the first few moves of the exercise.  Wear loose clothing and preferably smooth soled shoes.

Depending on interest, the group will decide how and when to continue the classes.  The eventual goal will be to learn the 37 move Yang short form exercise of Tai Chi, and join the advanced class which has been ongoing at TYC for over 4 years.
