Drop In Tai Chi
Rosiland’s teaching is available for groups as instruction in “Tai
Chi Movement” and “Chi Exercises”, self-contained classes
that allow for “drop-in” instruction on a one time, irregular
time or some time basis.
Each class is self-contained. Tai Chi moves are taught in series of three
or four to music.
Students unable to attend a regular six week sequential Tai Chi class because of time commitments, financial constraints, or sequential learning difficulty are not at a disadvantage, since each class exists as a self-contained unit
1. The Start
We will start out with weighted sand ball, working with that to establish:
Grounding
Balance
Even Flowing Movements
Movements parallel to the floor
Keeping arms from overextending
Maintenance of a figure-eight movement without hyperextension
Moving around a Constant Axis.
2. Chi Movement
We will then take what we’ve learned with the sand ball and apply
it to tai Chi movement:
Maintaining Balance and Symmetry
Tai Chi Walk
Horse Stance
3. Stretch with a Partner
We will learn to move/stretch with a partner:
Mirror Exercises
Paired Stretching
Paired Ball Exercises
4. The Practice
Selected Tai Chi Moves. Learn first, and then in repetitions of ten to music
