If you have always wanted to try Tai Chi, this is an opportunity to join in gently with flowing Chinese exercises, learning at your own pace.
For those already enjoying Tai Chi, this summer school offers you the time to refine your forms and relax further into the DaoYin exercises, harmonising movement and breath.
We will sit down for discussions about theory and background culture and then revise selected forms, to help each person gain confidence, balance and coordination.

Introduction to DaoYin exercises for wellbeing
Choose to learn the standing or seated/chair version of each exercise, then flow through together.
In the set of 12 DaoYin exercises, we can sense a holistic approach to wellbeing that involves the mind, along with harmonisation of movement and breath.
Dao Yin is an ancient term and the names of the exercises bring inspiration from the natural world and from traditional Chinese culture. DaoYin exercises can be used to maintain vitality, restore balance, quieten the mind, improve posture and strength and help keep diseases at bay.
