International Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan w/ Leslie Kannon
International Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan w/ Leslie Kannon
March 12, 2025 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Learn International Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan with Leslie Kannon at LACA!
Wednesdays starting March 12 from 6 - 7:30 p.m. (Mar. 12, Mar. 19, Mar. 26, Apr. 2, Apr. 9, and Apr. 16) This class is designed for students 12 years old to adults. Registration for the six-week season is $50 for LACA members and $60 for non-members. Students who have already completed the six-week session are invited to join the class to practice! Drop-in fees for LACA members is $9 and for non-members is $12.
Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan is practiced as a "form," a well-defined sequence of movements that flows from one posture to the next according to underlying principles. This class presents the movements and relaxed flow of the Tai Chi form from one posture to the next. Each class begins with a review of the previous one, then goes on to the new position.
The entire sequence of movements are taught, where the hands go, where the feet go, and the principles (softness, straightness, relaxation) that makes doing the movements worthwhile. Each class includes demonstrations, lots of practice repetitions, hands-on adjustments, and verbal guidance. Kannon suggests wearing loose fitting clothing, bringing a water bottle, and to practice at home between classes.

Beginning Stained Glass w/ Lucy O'Brien
March 19, 2025 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Lucy O’Brien’s ‘Beginning Stained Glass’ workshop is a four-day course held on four consecutive Wednesday starting March 5 (Mar. 5, 12, 19 & 26). The workshop will run from 1 - 3 p.m. each day and takes place at LACA. The cost of registration is $120 for LACA members and $140 for non-members. This fee includes all necessary supplies. The workshop is limited to four students, so interested individuals should register soon by either visiting ludingtonartscenter.org or calling 231-845-2787.
During the workshop, students will learn the Tiffany Style copper foil method, including safety procedures, glass types, pattern layout, cutting, grinding, foiling, soldering, cleaning, patinas, and framing. The class will be hands-on, with each student creating a small stained-glass panel.
No experience is necessary for this workshop, but closed-toe shoes are preferred. It is important to note that the solder used in the workshop does contain some lead. Pregnant and nursing individuals should not attend this workshop.
Lucy has been working in stained glass for over 25 years. While working as a medical technologist, she spent much of her free time attending workshops, learning new techniques, and experimenting with different types and colors of glass. In addition to creating custom pieces, she has done repair work and has taught private stained glass lessons.

International Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan w/ Leslie Kannon
International Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan w/ Leslie Kannon
March 19, 2025 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Learn International Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan with Leslie Kannon at LACA!
Wednesdays starting March 12 from 6 - 7:30 p.m. (Mar. 12, Mar. 19, Mar. 26, Apr. 2, Apr. 9, and Apr. 16) This class is designed for students 12 years old to adults. Registration for the six-week season is $50 for LACA members and $60 for non-members. Students who have already completed the six-week session are invited to join the class to practice! Drop-in fees for LACA members is $9 and for non-members is $12.
Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan is practiced as a "form," a well-defined sequence of movements that flows from one posture to the next according to underlying principles. This class presents the movements and relaxed flow of the Tai Chi form from one posture to the next. Each class begins with a review of the previous one, then goes on to the new position.
The entire sequence of movements are taught, where the hands go, where the feet go, and the principles (softness, straightness, relaxation) that makes doing the movements worthwhile. Each class includes demonstrations, lots of practice repetitions, hands-on adjustments, and verbal guidance. Kannon suggests wearing loose fitting clothing, bringing a water bottle, and to practice at home between classes.

The workshop will run from 1 - 3 p.m. each day and takes place at LACA. The cost of registration is $120 for LACA members and $140 for non-members. This fee includes all necessary supplies. The workshop is limited to four students, so interested individuals should register soon by either visiting ludingtonartscenter.org or calling 231-845-2787.
During the workshop, students will learn the Tiffany Style copper foil method, including safety procedures, glass types, pattern layout, cutting, grinding, foiling, soldering, cleaning, patinas, and framing. The class will be hands-on, with each student creating a small stained-glass panel.
No experience is necessary for this workshop, but closed-toe shoes are preferred. It is important to note that the solder used in the workshop does contain some lead. Pregnant and nursing individuals should not attend this workshop.
Lucy has been working in stained glass for over 25 years. While working as a medical technologist, she spent much of her free time attending workshops, learning new techniques, and experimenting with different types and colors of glass. In addition to creating custom pieces, she has done repair work and has taught private stained glass lessons.

International Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan w/ Leslie Kannon
International Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan w/ Leslie Kannon
March 26, 2025 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Learn International Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan with Leslie Kannon at LACA!
Wednesdays starting March 12 from 6 - 7:30 p.m. (Mar. 12, Mar. 19, Mar. 26, Apr. 2, Apr. 9, and Apr. 16) This class is designed for students 12 years old to adults. Registration for the six-week season is $50 for LACA members and $60 for non-members. Students who have already completed the six-week session are invited to join the class to practice! Drop-in fees for LACA members is $9 and for non-members is $12.
Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan is practiced as a "form," a well-defined sequence of movements that flows from one posture to the next according to underlying principles. This class presents the movements and relaxed flow of the Tai Chi form from one posture to the next. Each class begins with a review of the previous one, then goes on to the new position.
The entire sequence of movements are taught, where the hands go, where the feet go, and the principles (softness, straightness, relaxation) that makes doing the movements worthwhile. Each class includes demonstrations, lots of practice repetitions, hands-on adjustments, and verbal guidance. Kannon suggests wearing loose fitting clothing, bringing a water bottle, and to practice at home between classes.
