Becoming a Tai Chi for Balance Instructor
What could you try for the first time
This year, I’m stepping into something completely new—I’m preparing to teach Tai Chi!
I’ve already written a few blog posts about my journey so far, but now it’s becoming real. On November 8, I’ll be taking the Tai Chi instructor training class, the next big step toward certification.
Here’s a look at my class doing the Tai Chi 8 Forms with Suman Barkhas.
My goal? To bring Tai Chi and Qigong to Calontir. We already have Middle Eastern dance classes at our events, so why not gentle movement arts like these? They are period too and can be done in our garb.
After all, the SCA is about exploring many cultures and traditions—so why not add mindful movement to the mix? I’d love to start offering sessions at Lilies War and other gatherings throughout the year. What do you think?
