A summer Tai Chi course for people interested in trying something new! Taking place at the Midsomer Norton Town Park. This course is led by an experienced Tai Chi instructor, Bruce.

All abilities are welcome.

Bruce will be teaching the ‘Ba Men’ (which translates as 8 Gates). This is a short sequence of 8 moves which train the basic principles or energies of Tai Chi.

The moves of the Ba Men are fairly easy to learn – at the start, as one learns the movements the practice is gentle, opening the joints, building a more connected body etc but it can also be practised in a way that’s much harder and while one is still moving slowly it provides much more of a workout – so it can be tailored to the needs of those attending without the need to teach different things to different people.

We will be meeting at the Midsomer Norton Town Park Amphitheatre, Gullock Tyning, Midsomer Norton, Radstock, BA3 2UH.

Please arrive in time for a prompt 10:00 am start.

This class is for adults only.
