Tai Chi
Steven Kaufmann
Description from DukeHub
This course is for students with minimal to no prior experience in Tai Chi. Tai Chi is an ancient Chinese martial art developed over many centuries for strengthening physical and mental health as well as martial arts training. Classes start with traditional warmups, a series of breathing exercises, then transitions into form training. Every week new movements of the form will be taught. Movements of the form previously taught will be reviewed and refined. By the end of the semester the entire Chen Essential Tai Chi Short Form will be learned and refined.
