As is the traditional way, theis class uses partner connection work to help us develop greater sensitity to the subtle energies at play when we join with the taiji process.

Tai Chi Harmonies - Downton

Downton, Memorial Hall

Learn how to Harmonise your Body & Mind with Tai Chi

In this class, we explore how the ancient art of taijiquan (Tai Chi) actually works to bring about a unique understanding of both external and internal mindful practices. Externally we learn how to connect-up the body to move as a single unit; internally we use that joined-up body to move qi (energy) smoothly from head to toe; all of this requires a mindful awareness of our structure, position and movements through space.

We will not be learning a specific 'form' but will use movement sequences and some partner-connection exercises to support the material covered. 

Regular attendance is encouraged as the classes are progressive & you will not be able to keep up otherwise.

Cost: £10
60-75 minutes of exercise. Arrive at 7pm for a start 5 minutes later; the class will finish between 8 and 8:15pm

Led by Patrick Foley, Senior Instructor Tai Chi Union of Great Britain, Indoor Student of Master Sam Masich.
