Tai Chi Kung Fu is a complete system of Chinese martial art developed many centuries ago based on Taoist philosophy. Although each movement had been designed for hand fighting, its gentle flow and gracefulness are now also recognised as a good form of exercise. With constant practice, Tai Chi can promote good health and relaxation. The original form of Tai Chi was first developed by Master Chan. Since then, various styles had emerged, each with some variations and characteristics. The form of Tai Chi to be covered in this course is the Wu Style which consists of 108 movements. This introductory beginners class will cover the first 30 movements of Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan. INSTRUCTOR: Stephen Ho. Stephen is a retired academic in engineering. He learned Tai Chi Chuan in Hong Kong when he was a teenager. He continues to practise Tai Chi and Chi Kung over the years. In Australia, he followed Master Michael Yung for a few years and improved and perfected his forms under Michaels supervision. He has been running Tai Chi classes at various venues in Perth for over 20 years.

Players will learn the structure and the rules of game in a friendly, social environment and by the course conclusion, acquire the knowledge, skills and ability for independent / self-managed gameplay. Note: The Western game varies somewhat from the old Chinese game, but the principles and scoring are exactly the same, the only difference being the types of hands plus a slight variation in the doubling. The Chinese game is very simple and has no complicated hands as has the Western.

What I love about yoga is how it allows me to keep my life in balance. Not only physically, but mentally too. Yoga allows you to connect your body to your mind, explore and appreciate your movements, become more body aware, whilst at the same time, allows you to create peace and stillness of the mind. I started my yoga teacher journey in 2017, learning from the best at Santosha Yoga Institute in Nusa Lembongan. I fell in love with the practice, the place and the people, and knew I wanted to bring that magic back to Perth WA. I teach a more traditional style of yoga, focusing on alignment, strength and connection. My classes and ways of teaching are suited to anyone who is looking to start Yoga for the first time, are looking to learn safe ways to stretch and lengthen their bodies, or anyone who is looking for some balance. My aim is to provide you with a safe practice, that is both enjoyable and accessible for all levels, so everyone can benefit from their Asana. (Please bring a yoga mat and water bottle)
