Anyone who wishes to learn and master tai chi chuan must have a firm foundation rooted in good basics. This class will cover eight neigong, or internal exercises, that combine slow, relaxed and intentional body movement with coordinated breathing. These exercises will strengthen the body, stretch the muscles, open the joints and begin the development of chi.
