A new online T’ai Chi course for total beginners began in January 2026 and recordings are available of each week’s lesson. You can read more about the course and subscribe here. T’ai Chi is best learned in person but for some of us that is just not always possible. The beauty of online is its accessibility and inclusiveness, especially for carers, those who are house-bound, those with responsibilities or disabilities, all are equally able to attend, unlike in-person classes.
All are welcome, you do not need any experience whatsoever to join. You need never have done T’ai Chi as I will introduce all the principles, methods and movements one by one, allowing plenty of time for questions and practice. I also provide hand out sheets / online lists with postures as well as other relevant background materials, links and videos, as and when appropriate. Every hour-long class is recorded but there will also be a chance to hang out after class, unrecorded, for those who have observations or broader questions, not covered in class.
Class links are sent at noon on Monday, before each session. So, get out your loose comfortable clothing, your slippers or thick socks and clear away your furniture. You’ll need the minimum space of enough room to swing your arms out around you as wide as they go without hitting anything, in all directions. As a guide, you can manage a Short Form with adjustment steps in the space taken up by a double bed but a bit more space is better.
Class runs every Monday at 4pm UK time and are ongoing. We break for summer and winter holidays and the occasional week off due to travel where there is no wifi. Here’s the link again to sign up.
You can also head over to our Instagram to learn the basics and principles.
Heartwork introductory classes were taught online in 2024 and the videos are available free to all subscribers over at Uncivil Savant.
