2025 Winter Ba Fa Wu Bu - the simplest Tai Chi
Thursdays, 12/04/25 - 02/12/26 I taught this form in Spring and received favorable feedback. With that I am offering another 8-week online small-group class for in-depth instruction on Ba Fa Wu Bu (Eight Methods & Five Footworks), a simplified Yang-style sequence. No 180-degree or 360-degree turns—easy to learn. Practice at home or anywhere. Enjoy an interactive learning experience with timely feedback and open discussions to grasp the essential elements of Tai Chi Chuan. (#
