Classes are now running, online and back in some venues again, and i’m staying in touch with my old and new friends through live-streaming online classes with Tai Ji Circle so that we can still practice and learn together at home if people are unable to get to the venues. The Camden class at St Paul’s Church Hall in Camden Square has reopened, and there’s a new class at the St Pancras Community Association. See details below.
There are two online classes on Tuesdays and Fridays at 11.00am, see the Tai Ji Circle page above for advanced booking your In Venue class (we charge a fee to cover hall hire). Please wear a mask into class.
The online classes are hosted through Zoom. As an attendee to a session on Zoom you can join in and have a free account to facilitate entry to a meeting.
Tuesday and Thursdays classes are in Camden venues, where you learn to relax your body and mind with healthy tai chi and qi gong exercises.
The classes will help to relieve tension and stiffness, build strength in standing and improve coordination and balance. The sessions will contain warm-ups, some Chen Foundation training, standing practice for strengthening, silk reeling exercises with tai chi stepping, and we can finish with Yes Fei Gong, breathing exercises to sustain and strengthen the lungs.
Since the Covid pandemic there has been no Parkinson’s Unit tai chi class at the Edgware Community Hospital, several people now attend the online class instead with help from their families setting up Zoom.
The classes can be practiced seated if necessary. Best to wear lose comfortable clothes/trousers for gentle exercise and flat shoes or trainers. If you have a chronic medical condition you should have permission from your doctor that it is safe for you to attend class.
