Practically on your doorstep

If you live around Acton Green, South Acton or Bedford Park, our clinic is closer than you might think. From Acton Town it is two stops on the District line, via Chiswick Park, and from Acton Green it is a short walk.

Classes are small and unhurried. Each one opens with qi gong breathing and warm-up movements, then teaches Wu-style tai chi step by step, with a seated option for anyone who needs it. You leave with a short routine to practise at home.

Tai chi suits people who want to feel steadier, ease stiff joints, or find a calmer form of exercise. Read what the research says about balance and falls and arthritis.

Your first class

Your first class

Gentle, small and friendly. You can sit down at any point.

  1. Arrive and settle. Your teacher asks about any joint, balance or health concerns, so stances can be adapted from the start.
  2. Qi gong warm-up. Gentle loosening movements and slow breathing to settle the body and mind.
  3. Tai chi, step by step. Wu-style movements taught by demonstration and repetition, with a seated option throughout.
  4. Cool-down and home practice. A short routine you can repeat for ten minutes at home between classes.

Wear loose clothing and flat shoes. No equipment is needed. Read what happens in a tai chi class for more detail.
