Tai Chi for Beginners
Write your awesome label here.
Most people come to Tai Chi feeling one of two things.
Worn down - by stress, by tension, by a body that never fully switches off. Or curious - about the slow, deliberate movements they've seen in parks and documentaries and wondered about ever since.
Both are the right reason to start.
Tai Chi is a complete practice. It builds physical strength without strain. It sharpens focus without effort. And beneath the flowing movements, it carries a martial tradition that has been refined over centuries.
This course teaches you that tradition - from the foundational Yang Style forms through weapons and practical combat applications - guided by a master who has been practicing and teaching for four decades.
Step by step. At your own pace.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need any Tai Chi experience to take this course?
No. The course is sequenced for complete beginners. Andy builds each form from the ground up, with clear instruction at every step. No prior martial arts or movement experience required.
What is Yang Style Tai Chi?
Yang Style is the most widely practiced form of Tai Chi in the world. It emphasizes slow, flowing movements that develop balance, coordination, and internal strength. It's an ideal starting point - and a lifelong practice.
Why does this course include weapons and combat?
Because that's what Tai Chi actually is. The flowing forms are beautiful on their own - but understanding their martial application gives every movement meaning. Andy includes weapons and fighting forms because a complete education requires them.
How long will it take to work through the course?
That depends entirely on your pace. Most students spend several weeks on each section. With lifetime access, there's no rush - return to any lesson whenever you need it.
