Ruth Tai Chi

About

Taichi in the Waikato. Hi my name is Ruth Holmes. Tuesday evening class at Glenview Community Centre. More venues to come.

Story

Presently I run a weekly hour class at Glenview Community centre on Tuesday at 7pm - 8pm and also a class at a retirement home in the Glenview area. The cost is only $5 per class.
My aim is to run more classes in the near future so keep an eye out for more locations and time slots.
I studied Taichi in China where I worked for years teaching English. I also work in the Wintec Centre for Languages. I have a master of education from Waikato University.

A LITTLE INFO

The word Chi loosely means “breath or life”, Tai means “great or infinite”.
Through slow gentle movement, one gains strength, physical and life balance, stress reduction and improved mindfulness. Creating mind-body connection
Tai Chi is suitable for everyone, it is a gentle, efficient and effective exercise. Safe and low risk for injury. Accessible to all regardless of fitness or abilities/disabilities.
Main aim of Taichi is to raise qi(energy). First improve circulation, co-ordinate movements with correct breathing.
