Tai chi is an ancient Chinese martial art now recognized for its benefits to physical and mental health. With regular practice, tai chi’s fluid and controlled movements improve balance, build physical strength and endurance, and encourage relaxation of the body and calmness of the mind.

Students will learn Prof. Chen Man-Ch’ing’s tai chi Yang style short form at a slow and tranquil pace. Demonstrations are clear and easy to follow. Anyone can participate.

Class is capped at twelve persons, allowing individual attention for each student.

Fran Snyder is on the faculty and is president of the board of directors of the New York School of Tai Chi Chuan. She is a Tai Chi Foundation certified tai chi instructor teaching in New York City and in Chatham.
