The course develops connected movement in Yang Style Tai Chi, with practice focused on linking postures smoothly, maintaining consistent breathing and sustaining awareness through the 24 Form. Learners also continue with 8 Treasure Qi Gong, or Ba Duan Jin, working on coordination, balance, stamina and focused intention.
