The class is open to complete beginners over 16, also returning students and those who studied elsewhere in the past. Please be aware that there is a flight of stairs to climb to reach the room.

If you are a practising martial artist in any discipline I would be delighted to hear from you, and perhaps we could share our insights.

Cary Outis has taught the Internal Martial Arts of Tai Chi Chuan, Hsing I Chuan and Ba Gua Jiang for over tthirty years, and studied them for fourty three. The first twenty one of those were with his master, Rose Li Shao Chiang. Having found it unfathomable for the first few years, he is keen to make it fathomable to newcomers, without trivialising one of the world's most remarkable Arts.

Tai Chi Chuan is an “Internal” martial art system of exercise and meditation discovered and developed in China. A series of uninterrupted “shadow boxing” movements is performed, usually slowly, in harmony with the breath, encouraging a quiet mind and a relaxed agile body .

Tai Chi is suitable for women and men of all ages and physical conditions, and is introduced slowly to ensure that, with regular practice, nobody gets left behind in the process. Tai Chi skill and understanding grow over time, and careful study is invariably rewarded. Our classes last for one hour, and run in terms of twelve or so weeks. They are open to all.

If you would like to discuss these or other matters, please feel free to ring the tutor, Cary Outis, on 07934 424168.
