A MESSAGE ABOUT CLASSES:
IN-PERSON CLASSES:
Saturday mornings in Flow Studios, 127 Grove St. or sometimes in Edgemont Park when weather permits; and Monday evening at Montclair’s Unitarian Universalist Congregation, at 67 Church St. We hold Wednesday outdoor classes in Canterbury Park in Montclair the spring, summer, and fall as long as the weather permits. We plan to resume that in May.
ZOOM CLASSES:
We offer classes on Zoom on Saturday morning simultaneous with the in-person classes, and Wednesday evening on ZOOM only. In order to get invited to join the Zoom classes you must contact me at jew7@comcast.net or subscribe to our newsletter.
Though not required I encourage students, especially those new to tai chi, to try a private lesson in-person though we can by special arrangement provide a private lesson on ZOOM. In person classes are mostly held on Saturday mornings at Flow Studios. In a private lesson I can focus on YOU and guide you in the very personal way I prefer. My goal is always to make tai qi an enjoyable, calming, and healing practice.
In person private lessons are held at Flow Studios for $45. Regular in-person students can get a private lesson on Fridays for $25. Zoom private lessons are still just $15.
