Tai Chi Ch'uan classes - Chen style, Yang style and Sun style
I offer a number of weekly classes for holiday makers and for resident students. I teach forms from all the various Tai Chi styles. When teaching elderly persons I prefer to teach the forms based on the Sun style. Class sizes are small, sometimes private (one on one) and allow for personalized instruction. Although I approach this ancient Chinese art with great respect, classes are friendly and relaxed. Those wishing to immerse themselves more completely are encouraged to pursue private tuition, although learning Tai Chi in a small group has many advantages. While my focus is on Tai Chi I also teach some short Qi Gong forms and often use these Qi Gong forms as “Preparatory” and or “Cool Down” activities.
All instruction is in English or German.
