Tai Chi for adults
Classes taught and managed by Marie-Caroline
Tai Chi (Tàijí Quán) is an internal martial art that aims to unify our being. Like Qi Gong, it is one of the most ancient disciplines in Chinese culture, focusing not only on movement but also on a philosophy based on two opposing, complementary elements in perpetual motion: Yin and Yang. At its heart is Qi. It is by unifying Yin and Yang, by moving fluidly from one to the other, that Qi can then circulate freely throughout our being.
Marie-Caroline offers Tai Chi classes in the Yang and Chen styles. The Yang style, through the Yang 24 form, allows you to familiarise yourself with the basics of Tai Chi, while the Chen style, through a form in 83 movements, allows you to practise a more martial and dynamic form of Tai Chi. By practising Tai Chi regularly, you can develop your anchoring, coordination, strength, flexibility, balance and attention, and learn to let go while being completely present.
