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.

Learn ‘International Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan’ with Leslie Kannon at LACA during a 6 week program Wednesdays from 5:30 - 6:30 p.m. starting May 24.
Ludington, Michigan - Certified Instructor, Leslie Kannon, will teach beginner ‘International Wu Style Tai Chi’ at the Ludington Area Center for the Arts (LACA) during a weekly six week program Wednesdays from 5:30 - 6:30 p.m. starting May 24 (May 24, May 31, Jun. 7, Jun. 14, Jun. 21, and Jun. 28). If the weather cooperates, this class will take place outside in LACA's beautiful courtyard! This class is designed for students 12 years old to adults. Registration for the six-week season is $50 for LACA members and $70 for non-members. Register online at ludingtonartscenter.org or by calling 231-845-2787.
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.
