Tai Chi Chuan
For health, fitness and fun.
|
Tai Chi Chuan has many mental and physical health benefits: you will release stress; improve your focus, memory and agility; balance your mind, body and emotions; and find new friends.
We teach in a way that everybody can learn it; taking the long forms apart and arranging the moves in short sequences, so that they can be practiced more easily. You do not have to remember all the moves to get health benefits. You will also learn about the energy applications of Tai Chi - how you can use the mental principles of this ancient Martial art in your everyday life. We train in a focused, friendly atmosphere, without a competitive undertone. Everybody develops at their own speed, and students help each other. Don't worry if you have never done Tai Chi or start it late in life; we have a lot of experience teaching students over 50. |
4-weeks Introduction courses (Hanwell)
Gift Certificates: |
Introduction course
The best way to get started is our four weeks intro-course (runs 2-3 times a year). You can also join in-between courses if there are places available in the ongoing class.
More info "I would highly recommend this course to anyone wishing to take up Tai Chi. It allows you to forget about everything else for the duration of the class and I find I am more relaxed in mind and more energised in body afterwards." Thelma |
Ongoing classes
Mixed Ability Classes run every week. Several of our students started Tai Chi late in life ... so don't shy away if your hair has turned silver.
More info "Andrea’s encouragement and pragmatic approach brings out the best in all of us. I can feel myself getting better each session, and since starting as a novice early last year, I now feel much more relaxed and flexible in both body and mind." Paul |
Private lessons
In person or per Zoom at a time that suits you. You can either work on the full Curriculum or take some custom-designed sessions to support a specific health goal.
More info "My private lessons per Zoom are a real 'pick-me-up', especially after a hard day at work. After each lesson, I feel relaxed, stronger, more peaceful and more optimistic about my problem-solving ability at work. I really need this now". Mike |
Nordic Walking
A full-body workout in nature.
|
Nordic Walking is the summer version of cross-country skiing, invented by the Finnish Olympic team. It is a full-body workout, as it uses 90% of your muscles - while being gentle on your joints.
It is great for your mental and physical wellbeing, heart health, weight loss and fitness. Being outdoors all year round, rain or shine and in a great group of people, makes you feel happy and fully alive! |
Foundation Course
(2-hour course, West London) 15 Feb, 8 March, 29 March, or 3 May This course can also be delivered to sports teams, clubs and walking groups at a time that suits you. Gift Certificates: |
Nordic Walking Courses
Our 2-hours Foundation Course gets you walking with fitness poles and enables you to join our group walks. After some practice, you then can take the Optimizer course.
|
Nordic Walking Private Lessons
Private lessons and walks can cover regular Nordic Walking for fitness goals, or address specific health issues and rehab needs. Excellent before and after surgery.
|
Learn Pole Walking for Safety & Mobility
For those with limited mobility who feel anxious about walking on slippery paths. Walking with two poles instead of a walking stick is healthier and safer.
|
"Andrea was an informative and patient instructor. Two hours went really quickly. I definitely recommend Nordic Walking to anyone wanting to try a new fun exercise that is great for your fitness.* Emma |
Guided Group Walks: Fitness, friends and fun in nature
I really enjoy taking part in the walks. I discovered areas of Ealing I didn’t know existed, met some lovely new friends, and improved my fitness and well-being. It’s the ideal form of exercise for me as it is gentle on the body and yet I get a workout without being exhausted at the end. After a walk I feel relaxed and energised - Chiara |
Our guided group walks suit different ability and fitness levels: Moderate, Active, and Dynamic Speed. They all provide a good workout, and allow you to improve your technique and spend quality time with others. You must take our Foundation course before joining the walks.

Team Development
Inspiration and Team Spirit
We combine the best of Tai Chi, Nordic walking, Meditation and Coaching - creating an inspiring, custom-designed experience for your team. Your event can focus on fitness, fun and team spirit, and we can include modules about conflict resolution, effective communication and collaboration. For example, Tai Chi Chuan principles teach us a lot about peaceful, effective conflict management. The sessions can be stand-alone or added to a meeting or training seminar; after a day of sitting down and 'thinking' together - get up, have some fun, and work with your 'physical intelligence'.
