TAI CHI QIGONG for SELF DEFENCE class begins with Sun Style Tai Chi solo short forms which are suitable to learn in a relatively short period of time. These solo forms provide a solid foundation to move onto other Tai Chi forms, kata and styles.  All Gentle Way of Self Defence classes also include the understanding and practice of self defence applications of the solo form/kata with TWO PERSON practice based on the principle of "minimum effort with maximum efficiency". All classes are geared to individual capabilities of the student with the option to participate or not to participate in any TWO PERSON activity in any class.

​​​​

​TAI CHI QIGONG FOR HEALTH and RELAXATION class focuses on the Gentle Way of better health and wellbeing through learning and practising Tai Chi Qigong solo forms and DOES NOT involve any two person activities but may include an understanding of the intention and powerful principles involved in learning and practising solo Tai Chi Forms.
