Taiji

60 minute class | Instructor Guide - Declan
Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10am $10 drop


Taiji is considered to be one of the internal styles of Chinese martial art, and is the most widely practiced martial art in the world today. The term "Taiji" refers to the ancient Chinese cosmological concept of the interplay between two opposite yet complementary forces (Yin and Yang) as being the foundation of creation. Taiji as a martial art is based on the principle of the soft overcoming the hard.

Intro - this class will be very basic focussing on finding core muscles and engaging postural muscles for basic health and maintenance of functional movement. Class will be done using chairs and props for balance and training. Seniors who want to build muscle strength or anyone looking to get back into exercise after a period of recovering from an injury or surgery would benefit from this class. 

Basic - This class will follow on from Intro movements and is excellent for active seniors or anyone wanting to become more aware of core muscles and how to engage them for everyday movements and as a basis for strength training. This class will include some chair exercises and some mat work on the floor. 

Intermediate - This class will move towards more integration of arm and leg movements while stabilizing the trunk and core. We will use props and awareness to build repertoire of exercises that will build core stability and prepare people for participation in any other activities or exercise programs.

Yoga literally means “union”. This union can be understood on different levels: philosophically, as that of the relative, limited self with the absolute Self; religiously, as that of the individual soul with the Infinite Spirit; psychologically, as the integration of the personality – a state wherein a person no longer lives at cross-purposes with himself; emotionally, as the stilling of the waves of likes and dislikes, permitting one to remain in all circumstances complete in himself.
