Tai Chi is the most popular form of exercise on earth with millions who practice it living longer and more active lives. Our oldest student just turned 90 and the youngest was 6.

Our Tai Chi is designed to improve your health through long-term practice of slow movements, breathing exercises, Meridian Qi Gong and acupressure.
“The controlled movements strengthen nerve pathways which become less responsive without practice.” This improves balance and helps prevent falls.
