Welcome to Tai Chi Ireland

In these days of ecological degradation and material excess, we humans suffer from chronic illness, fatigue and stress as well as unprecedented depressions, addictions and suicides. Any key to getting better is to start first on your body’s fundamentals- posture, breathing, awareness, then powerful whole-body movement that can be tested and refined through practice. Tai Chi Ireland offers detailed, serious and comprehensive tuition in the powerful, life-changing movement and mind arts of Tai Chi and Qi Gong. With 24 years experience working with some leading masters in their respective fields, Jan Golden and his instructors can offer you a body and mind-opening education in the potential of your body for relaxed power and strength, body awareness, balanced, smooth and co-ordinated movement plus a very subtle and fine method of mindfulness. Suitable for anyone of any age, it can enhance any professional sport and repair many long-term postural problems, as well as providing a wealth of other benefits. Try out a class today!
