Fortunately, there are a series of postures that are common to all variations, and these can be learnt quickly and easily in this introductory course.
Absolute Beginner?
This simple, easy to learn and entertaining course is perfect for you. I'll take you through the footwork, the arm positions and then each posture, linking them slowly into a flowing and beautiful short sequence for you to practice each day.
Already know some Tai Chi?
If you are already practising or have learnt some Tai Chi, then these postures should be familiar. However, to make it more challenging, I will be linking them in a new way, showing you how to perform them on both sides and how to add repetitions and how to add extra moves between the transitions.
