The class will start with essential Qi gong exercises to warm up joints and muscles, working slowly through the areas of the body to improve balance and mind. The Tai Chi in the 24 form is the most popular for beginners so ideal for older people.
I have been practicing Tai Chi for 19 years and hope I can instil upon my class my love of this ancient Chinese exercise which I practice daily.
