Our morning intermediate Tai Chi group meets each Monday, Tuesday or Friday morning, members coming to the session that suits their diary best, to practise a set of flowing Tai Chi and Qi Gong moves for improving flexibility, balance, and for relaxation.

Buckingham U3A intermediate Tai Chi has a few members who practised Tai Chi before lockdown, and many who were total beginners and have advanced to become intermediate with this group. Fraser is a previous student of Taoist Tai Chi and has choreographed a shortened set of 76 or so linked moves that he regularly carries out and is happy to lead others in learning - this set focuses on gentler moves emphasising flexibility, balance and a flowing sequence. Our group started in 2024 and has now advanced to become an intermediate group. Sessions are usually approx one hour plus time after for coffee/tea and a chat!

If you would be interested in attending then the way to do this, unless you already have significant experience of Tai Chi, is to join one of the introductory sessions on a Friday afternoon for a few weeks then you should be ready to join any of the other groups - the beginners group starts from scratch every few months and we run a waitlist - if you would like to join then please let Fraser know by email. To join the waitlist you must first be an existing Buckingham U3A member.
