Tai Chi is a form of moving meditation that combines slow, controlled movements with deep breathing. It is designed to balance the body and mind, helping to release tension and improve energy flow.  

Tai Chi is practiced standing or sitting, with slow, deliberate movements. You’ll be guided through a series of gentle postures and breathing exercises designed to help you relax and restore balance. No experience is necessary.  

We offer small group classes with a focus on relaxation and wellbeing. Classes are welcoming, and no prior experience is needed. 

Our Tai Chi instructors are fully trained and experienced in working with people affected by cancer. They are fully insured and volunteer their time to support our charity.  Donations are used to cover essential items such as equipment, venue hire and continuing professional development of our volunteers.

This is a group course which usually runs for 6 weeks. A session typically lasts an hour and is offered face to face.

Tai Chi is very gentle, but if you have mobility concerns, it can be adapted to suit you. Movements can be done seated if needed, and there is no pressure to push beyond your comfort level.  You will also complete a medical questionnaire before the time, but if you have any concerns—such as recent surgery or mobility issues—it’s best to check with your instructor and doctor before starting. You’re always encouraged to work at your own pace.
