Longwater Tai Chi - Welcome

Longwater Tai Chi (pronouncedtai-ji) is based near Salisbury, Wiltshire (UK), and is led by its two principal teachers, Patrick Foley and Jane Launchbury. Our teachings are based on aspects of the Bruce Frantzis Energy Arts® system of internal self-healing exercises.

Feel well and stay fit... in slow motion

Unlike aerobics and most forms of modern Western exercise, Tai Chi teaches you how to achieve robust health through correct body alignments and low impact movements, based most importantly on the 70% Rule. The internal health aspects of Qigong (pronounced chi gung) practised with Tai Chi relieves physical, emotional and mental tension and stress and paves the way to self-healing, reducing your dependence on the overburdened health service. We believe Tai Chi is safe for people of all ages and levels of fitness.

Longwater Tai Chi holds classes and workshops in Wilton and Downton in Wiltshire and Fordingbridge in Hampshire, each designed to suit your commitment, from "take a dip" drop-in classes to half day workshops to regular short form and long form classes for the serious long term student. We can also cater for private lessons and small groups at your local venue.
