New Fall Zoom Sessions

Foundations of Tai Chi

Registration Required

The London Branch is sponsoring a new Zoom class open to all CTCA members and guests from the Mr. Moy tradition. No charge for the zoom sessions.

Everyone who was registered for the summer Foundations Class will autmatically be registered for the fall class.  If you would like your name to be removed from the class list, please send a request to workshop@londontaichi.ca .

The goal of the Foundation class is to progress slowly through the set from the first move to the end of the set. The Foundations of Tai Chi will be led by Andrew Moore. The moves of the Tai Chi set will be reviewed in order with an emphasis on basic balance, angle and directions. The class will be targeted to people who have completed the Introduction to Tai Chi class.  Questions are encouraged.  It is not easy to offer corrections through the Zoom platform. The focus will be on the 'beginner' form of Mr. Moy's Tai Chi.

Start Date is October 4

Weekly: Tuesdays from 1 PM to 2:30 PM EST

Pre-requisites:

  • Completed an Introduction to Tai Chi (Beginners) course from the Mr. Moy tradition.
  • The pace of the course will be slow to accommodate questions and provide opportunity for lots of practice
  • No camera required
  • No microphone required (without a microphone you will have to use the chat function to ask any questions)
  • Once you have registered you will receive the zoom invitation and weekly reminders
  • Send an email to request a registration form to: workshop@LondonTaiChi.ca

Advice to people to attending the session:

  • Spend some time before the session working on the foundation exercises
  • The goal is to slowly work through the Tai Chi set
  • There will be lots of repetitions of each move
  • We will not be practicing the entire set (you do not need space to do the whole set)
  • We will review material from the previous week
  • Each week we will add new moves until we complete the set
  • Once we complete the set we will spend time reviewing the foundation exercises

If you know of other people who would like to join the Foundations of Tai Chi sessions they can send a request to workshop@LondonTaiChi.ca for the registration form. The prerequisite is that you must have learned the Tai Chi set from the Mr. Moy tradition.
