Please join our final TCfBH Tai Chi Qigong Shibashi practice of 2025, as we celebrate the turning point of ultimate Yin that is the winter solstice; embracing stillness.

Another year is drawing to a close and time to draw a line under this year's practice. Thank you all for coming to sessions and sharing your beautiful energy. I hope Tai Chi awareness permeates, uplifts and heals all areas of your health, wellness and lives.

We are entering a period of rest and restoration - spring spouts and summer fruits will not grow without winter renewal and rejuvenation.

Wishing you all a magical winter solstice. Hope to see you on Saturday 20 December.
