Class Dates are Sundays: April 13 and 27, May 4 and 18 (no classes on Easter and Mothers’ Day). Download the 1-page flyer for tips and instructions. Some people bring folding chairs— you can practice in a chair. Be sure to bring a jacket, because it can get breezy at this park even when the temperature rises.

I learned some Tai Chi forms from Tai Chi Masters who speak little to no English, and so they taught Tai Chi by having us watch demonstrations. It really helps your learning to get explanations of how to do the movements. While it is helpful to watch demonstrations, it is also helpful to go along with a mirrored view as you practice. In this class, we do mirrored instruction and practice, and we also do “follow the leader” by standing behind or next to the leader/teacher.
