Our Classes  

T'ai Chi

T'ai Chi is an ancient Chinese martial art.  It is a slow meditative form of exercise that increases flexibility in both mind and body.  T'ai Chi combines postures and movements inspired by the natural world into forms which are learned and practiced over a lifetime.  [More about T'ai Chi]  The practice of T'ai Chi reduces stress, tones muscles, massages joints, improves balance and much more.  [Benefits of T'ai Chi]

Classes are offered in several Yang-style forms: the 108 long form (starting with the 19 form), 24 short form, 32 sword, 4 directions and 2-person forms for students at all levels of experience.  There are two distinct groups of classes:

  1. Classes offered at the Phoenix T'ai Chi Centre. [Centre Schedule & Fees]  [Centre Photos]
  2. Classes taught by our instructors throughout the London community.  Please contact the sponsoring organizationsfor registration information.
