MARCH 20: T’ai Chi Ch’uan

It is a standing/moving exercise that can be done anywhere, anytime and doesn’t need special clothing or shoes.
Judyth Weaver received permission to teach TCC from the school of Grand Master Cheng Man-Ch’ing in 1971, and she has been teaching it regularly around the world since then.
The class will be offered on Wednesdays, from 11 am till noon in the Om Studio. (PLEASE NOTE – NEW DAY of the week AND new TIME!)
