It’s been a while since I updated this page but I’m pleased to report that the class is going from strength to strength. The students who have been coming for a few weeks now are starting to progress through learning the tai chi dance and tai chi form as well as getting to grips with partner practice and breathing exercises.
New students often join us too, so if you were thinking of coming along to try tai chi for the first time, you’d be very welcome!
You can find us at Kings Heath Community Centre on Heathfield Road on Wednesdays 6.30pm-8.00pm.
Next week is the start of Chinese New Year. It will be the year of the Snake which is seen as a symbol of good fortune.
Our class is part of the Taoist Cultural Arts Association which gives us the opportunity to train with students from other classes at weekend courses. On Saturday there was a course held in Coventry taught by a senior teacher in the association. We all went for a Chinese meal together afterwards to celebrate the new year.
As well as the weekly classes in Kings Heath, there are be more weekend courses planned in Leamington Spa in February and here in Birmingham in March, as well as a week-long course in Cornwall in April. Visit the association’s website to book:
It looks like Year of the Snake is looking will be a busy one with lots of opportunities to train together and keep learning ☯️
