This monthly workshop is designed to complement the weekly Tai Chi classes by offering the time and space to go deeper into practice. In a longer, unhurried format, students are able to fully explore Tai Chi principles, refine movement quality, and develop a solid personal practice they can take home and continue on their own.
Each workshop begins with a comprehensive warm-up including flexibility, joint mobility, balance, and strength training, preparing the body for deeper movement exploration. We then dive into focused Tai Chi practice drawn from Yang Style Tai Chi, Chen Style Tai Chi, and Ba Gua, with each month highlighting a specific theme or system.
Participants will:
Learn and refine movements from the Yang Style 24 Form
Explore smooth, silky, soft, and gentle transitions that are also resilient and powerful
Integrate breath, movement, and intention into a cohesive practice
Develop strength, stability, coordination, and body awareness
For students attending the weekly Tai Chi classes, this workshop offers an opportunity to slow down, clarify details, and deepen embodied understanding. For those new to Tai Chi or unable to attend weekday classes, it serves as a complete and accessible introduction.
The extended 2.5-hour format allows the body and mind to fully experience Tai Chi’s unique qualities—flow, grounding, relaxation, and inner strength—creating space for learning, repetition, and integration in a way that shorter classes cannot.
Each monthly workshop builds upon previous material while also including review and foundational practice, so newcomers are always welcome.
All levels welcome. No prior experience required.
