Description

Safe "stress-free"
Kung Fu training for all ages.
Shao Chi Chuan's hallmark is it's dynamic but flowing and relaxed movements that enhance the body function rather than over-stress it.
ALSO
Tai Chi for health
Tai Chi is an exercise that anyone can do, and it uses natural, comfortable movements that are gentle on the joints. It is enjoyable and does not unduly stress the body.
Performed properly, Tai Chi is a form of chi kung (qigong). In Chinese culture, it is widely respected as an exercise that promotes overall good health and a calm mind.
When taught according to traditional methods, Tai Chi is a discipline that fully engages you. There is a constant process of learning and improvement that means you will stay fascinated; many who start Tai Chi just for exercise continue doing Tai Chi for their whole lives.
Tai Chi as a Martial ArtTai Chi originally became famous as a martial art. Early exponents were so well regarded for their skill that they taught the guards of the Emperor of China and found work protecting merchants from bandits.
It was the excellent health of people who had learnt the martial art which led to Tai Chi's fame for promoting health and longevity.
Tai Chi is a safe and non-aggressive alternative for people who would like to learn self-defence. Even if martial skill is not one of your goals, we believe that this traditional training will make tai chi more interesting and more rewarding for you.
