Since I started Tai Chi lessons has helped me in so many way. It is amazing. I had digestive problems, stress and other health concerns. Since I have been doing Tai Chi regularly I have experienced relief in these areas. I practice now every day and am so thankful for my present health
It has been a privilege and a blessing to receive instruction from Greg & Maggie on the ancient art of Tai Chi. They have patiently and selflessly dedicated their time and experience to sharing the wisdom of this physical, mental and spiritual practice. Highly recommended !!
Tai Chi is a gentle slow activity that has increased my awareness of controlled movement and flexibility. I look forward each week to learning and enjoying he benefits of tai chi in the peaceful learning environment
My journey in 108 Tai Chi started about 15 years ago. I looked at a number of styles and decided that the 108 Master Moi style was best suited to me. Gentle stretching with a focus on the many health benefits. I started doing a few classes a week, became a set leader, made many friends and found my self so eager to learn the form. I wish I had understood how Tai Chi lessons would make me feel 30 years ago. I just love it and encourage any body at any age to get involved and learn. My regular training has helped me to find balance in my life, to improve my posture and lower back pain. I find myself calmer and with a much clearer head. My physical fitness and stamina has increased and I feel much happier in my body. I have made some great friends through the classes, a lovely mix of people from all walks of life. Friendly, positive, encouraging and inclusive
I have been practicing Master Moy’s 108 moves of tai chi for more than 20 years and have been an instructor for 12 years. I love to see the transformation of people struggling with the moves to begin with, then flowering as they become in tune with the moves and the eureka moments when they just get it. Initially most people struggle with thinking they have to remember the moves. They don’t. We do it as a group and we learn together. Experiencing the 108 moves is the beginning. The remembering and fine tuning the moves is what happens later. Patience is a virtue. For myself, I live a very busy life and tai chi is the only thing I do slowly and in silence. It keeps me sane. Tai chi is also an amazing activity to practice when one is stressed or there is a problem to solve. Concentrating on the next tai chi move breaks the current thought patterns, allows a breathing space to think more clearly.
I have been keen to learn tai chi for some time and heard about the tai chi group not far from where I live. I started learning the form earlier this year. While it initially seemed complicated and difficult to remember the moves, practicing between classes has been a great way to reinforce and remember the new moves taught each week. I also meet up with another member of the group to practice in a local park on the weekend. Greg and Maggie are great instructors and are very patient with the group. I have aslo started to notice improvements in my physical fitness and balance. I look forward to continuing to practice the form daily and build on the skills I have learnt so far.
We have been enrolled in the free tai chi courses provided by Greg and Maggie. The park setting is glorious, which certainly has helped set the mood.
Greg and Maggie are great instructors, always providing encouragement and positive feedback. We look forward to our next semester.
