Tuesday 10:15am TQ Fusion at NLUC

A Beautiful Beginning in Yang-Style Tai Chi - Featuring the iconic 24 form plus Health Qigong - A combination to Enjoy!

As autumn arrives, we begin again with a renewed sense of rhythm, breath, and grounded movement. This Tuesday morning class at North Lonsdale United Church that starts at 10:15am offers a welcoming place to start learning or continue your Tai Chi journey through the 24 Form, the most widely practised beginner Yang-style Tai Chi form in the world today.

The 24 Form is loved because it is both accessible and deeply meaningful. Created as a shorter, more approachable sequence, it gives students a clear pathway into the beauty, depth, and health benefits of Taijiquan. In this class, we will review the foundations of each of the 24 movements, giving time to understand posture, balance, weight transfer, relaxation, breath, and flow.

Once learned, the 24 Form can be practised in many ways — slowly and meditatively, or at a lighter pace — taking anywhere from a few minutes to much longer, depending on the intention of the practice. It is a beautiful form to return to again and again, because even after the sequence becomes familiar, there is always more to discover.

Learning the 24 Form is a wonderful way to cultivate relaxation in motion. With regular practice, students often notice improved flexibility, concentration, balance, coordination, strength, energy, and body awareness. The flowing movements can help reduce tension and stress while giving the mind something calm and steady to follow.

For many people, the 24 Form becomes a lifelong practice — gentle enough for those who need a low-impact approach to exercise, yet rich enough to keep revealing new layers over time. Whether you are brand new to Tai Chi or returning after time away, this class offers a steady, supportive way to begin building skill, confidence, and connection through movement.

    • Learn the Value of Videos: If you are new to Tai Chi, you will definitely want the added benefit of weekly videos to practice your form throughout the week. Those with experience know that it helps them remember the moves, makes practicing at home easier, helps build confidence, and enhances learning between and during classes. In the past, Tai Chi students had to carry the whole lesson home in memory. Today, weekly videos allow you to review, pause, replay, and practise slowly — helping you learn with more confidence, patience, and finesse. Weekly Practice Videos are a valuable support for your Tai Chi journey.

It is also one of the most recognized Tai Chi forms in the world, connecting students to a much larger global community of people practising Tai Chi for health, harmony, and inner balance.
  • This class also includes Qigong-inspired warm-ups and foundational exercises to help prepare the body, calm the mind, and support the learning process. Together, Tai Chi and Qigong create a practice that is both grounding and uplifting — a moving meditation for everyday life!

ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS IN-PERSON CLASS

Our Tuesday Rejuvenating Qigong & Tai Chi classes at 10:15am is held at North Lonsdale United Church, a spacious and welcoming practice location with room to move comfortably.

Please wear comfortable clothing and flat, supportive indoor shoes that allow you to shift your weight safely. Students are encouraged to arrive a little early so they can settle in, meet the TQSpirit team, and prepare for practice.

Tai Chi is best learned gradually, with kindness and consistency. There is no need to memorize everything right away. The practice meets you where you are — and over time, the movements begin to feel more familiar, more natural, and more like your own.

How our TQSpirit classes flow: Each 1 hour class will include a wide variety of Qigong forms: Health qigong forms that strengthen and stretch the body; Breathing meditations that calm the mind and the spirit; Breathing teachniques that use  abdominal breathing, reverse breathing, small and grand qi circulation; Qigong that helps purge toxic emotions, impurities release; Healing sounds that help bring the body into balance and smooth qi flow, and much more.

Each class always starts with a slow, flowing warm-up to calming music, after which you will follow the instructor in various qigong exercises, stretches and meditations. The last 1/2 of the Fusion class will be dedicated to a beginner Tai Chi form.

No two classes are the same – We explore different forms each week to keep your practice fresh and engaging.

Long-time students love the variety and depth each season brings, while newcomers often share how approachable the instruction feels—and how quickly they begin to feel more relaxed, grounded, and energized. Classes are taught in a warm, supportive, and welcoming environment. Students often appreciate the seasonal rhythm and the sense of community that develops over time.

Come experience the balance of stillness and motion, and the joy of learning within a caring community as we move together through the energy of spring.
