learn Tai Chi

I went along to a class run by the Taoist Tai Chi Society. It was well organised and presented. The Society is almost completely run by volunteers, including the teachers. The monthly sub is reasonable, and allows you to attend wherever they have a class. Learned a lot of moves in my first lesson. Looking forward to more now!

Well, I enrolled for a term of evening classes only to find it conflicted with an evening class on my wife’s MA, which takes priority, as we can’t find childminder. So I got to only 2 classes. It looks really good; what I need, but probably in addition to Pilates, rather than as a substitute.

Hopefully next term it will work out better!

I’ve still never been to a proper tai chi lesson, but I’ve now learned enough through Body Balance to do a nice workout in the garden at home. I am amazed how much better the exercises seem when done outside on grass than inside at the gym. Really enjoying this. I will definitely be looking for a class with a seasoned teacher when I get settled down.
