A Bit About Me
After many years teaching high intensity fitness classes, my interests turned to exploring alternatives to mainstream fitness programmes, and with my personal interest in Tai Chi already ensconced into my daily programme, this form of exercise seemed the perfect fit for not only developing a gentle physical exercise programme but also addressing issues of mental health and well-being, particularly within our ageing population.
After completing my first Tai Chi course in 2011, my focus shifted from 'physical' fitness to a more holistic approach to well-being. I have studied under several Masters and after many years of practice, I have been awarded Instructor certificates to teach Weapons, Falls Prevention, Cognitive Health, Yang style and other mainstream tai chi Forms. 2019 I travelled to Beijing to study under Master Yang Bu Ying at the Beijing Sports University and I have recently developed an online learning programme specifically for beginner Tai Chi students.

She is very patient, encouraging and knowledgeable. She presents lessons at the appropriate level for the class and does not move on too quickly. Her classes are always friendly and enjoyable, and her instructions very clear. She has provided additional support with videos of the tai chi routine, etc, and offers additional classes during the holidays, as well as special events during the year. She is at all times very professional in appearance and in her teaching.
