XFW 6077B -- Tai Chi I 12 Contact hours (Offered as needed) This ancient Chinese practice consists of postures strung together in what is known as the FORM. In this class, you will learn the Essential Movements, which begin to develop the mindfulness, strength, flexibility, balance and coordination necessary to learn the FORM.
