This is a new course starting in the summer term.
Tai Chi Chuan is a Taoist art which originated as a martial art. It is now most often practised for health and well being, both physical and mental.
The slow, gentle and graceful movements help to improve balance, breathing, posture, and mobility. The most recognisable practice is the continuous sequence of flowing movements accomplished in slow motion.
Students develop increasing physical and mental skills, as awareness and understanding of all aspects of the self increases. Many movements focus on gently opening and stretching the joints and the muscles of the body, releasing tension. By increasing the flow of blood and energy, Tai Chi movements help to fully nourish all parts of the body.
