Free Lunchtime Tai Chi and Qigong taster sessions


April 21st, 2023

The Nottingham Confucius Institute is offering Tai Chi and Qigong taster sessions at lunchtime on the Jubilee, King’s Meadow and University Park campuses in May.

Join gold-medallist European Champion in Health Qigong and popular Yang-style Tai Chi instructor, Angela, for a 45-minute taster session, showcasing how the traditional Chinese practice of Tai Chi and Qigong can benefit body, breathing and mind.

Each session includes:

  • Gentle body mobilisation, calming the breathing and mind;
  • Step-by-step instruction, learning specific health benefits along the way;
  • Flowing through the full routine to experience stillness in motion, accompanied by flowing music.

These taster sessions are ideal for beginners and all movements are slow, gentle and low-impact, accessible to all, with the emphasis on working to your own comfort levels. Please wear loose, comfortable clothing and flat shoes (or bare feet!).

Could contact details be made available as I would like to know why Sutton Bonington campus has been left off the list of sessions. I would really like to do Tai Chi but as I work at SB campus, travelling to the other campuses during my lunch break to join the TC sessions is not an option for me.

Hi Carmen – thanks for your comment. We’ve been in touch with the organisers, and Tai Chi sessions will now be offered on Sutton Bonington campus too, you can book your place using the link in the article. Thanks
