Living Tai Chi run by Christine Jones, based in North London, brings a fresh outlook to working with Tai Ji Quan (tai chi), Qi Gong (Chi kung) and combines ideas from different Asian health arts. The teaching is aimed at those in the community who are new to tai chi who want a gradual introduction and can be adapted for those unable to stand for a whole class, or for those who are older or physically less able who may need to sit for part of the practice.

Chris has developed a practice that is based on the foundation training of Chen Taijiquan (tai chi chuan in the more familiar Cantonese spelling) and qi gong (breathing health exercises), and also makes use of the Tai Chi Qi Gong 18 movement set, for loosening up the body and freeing energy to flow more easily. These exercises can be done seated or standing depending on the group, and help release tension and stiffness using natural circular and spiralling movements. When practiced on a regular basis they can improve strength, balance, health, energy and wellbeing.
