TAI CHI CLASSES

NEW ONGOING TAI CHI CLASS STARTS TUESDAY, JANUARY 27, 2026

As of 2026, Tai Chi classes are held once a week on Tuesdays, from 6 to 7:30 pm. This is a simultaneous class, meaning that you may attend in person at our Essex Junction location or connect through Zoom. 

Composed of soft, flowing moments, Tai Chi is an extraordinary exercise of mental and physical integration and coordination. Originally taught as a martial art in old China, it is now mostly practiced for its health benefits. Tai Chi enhances mindfulness, increases muscle strength, flexibility, and coordination. One need not be in the best of health or top physical condition to practice this gentle exercise; however, even the most serious athlete will see a benefit. 

After 50 years of studying the body and mind-body connections, I have modified the Tai Chi I learned in the 1970’s to create a new system that takes into account the 8 divisions of form and energy. This allows the form and pattern to more appropriately balance the mind and body. 

This class is ongoing and charges per 8-week section. For the upcoming 8 weeks ending on March 17, 2026, the cost is $150.00. Combined with the 8-week Qigong class, the tuition is $250.00.
