Beginner tai chi–in-person, online & via recording

We’ll meet at weekly for eight 60-minute classes. This session, we’ll explore the movements of the form bafa wubu (bā fǎ wǔ bù – “Eight Methods, Five Steps”), practicing both standing and seated. If being on your feet for an extended time is challenging for you, you can join us right from your chair.

In China, bafa wubu is now taught as the standard beginner form. It includes quintessential tai chi movements, and it focuses on the core principles of the practice:

* deliberate weight transference* healthy posture
* relaxed breathing
* body awareness
* steps that improve balance and agility

It’s the perfect place to start–or continue–your journey with tai chi. BaFa WuBu is especially useful if you’re interested in learning the popular Yang 24 form (BaFa WuBu includes some of the Yang movements).

Follow the link for online access–recordings will be posted after each class.
