Tai Chi - Tai Chi - Spring 2026 - Wander Tai Chi
Tai chi is a gentle form of exercise that can help maintain strength, flexibility, and balance and could be the perfect activity for the rest of your life. A growing body of carefully conducted research is building a compelling case for tai chi as an adjunct to standard medical treatment for the prevention and rehabilitation of many conditions commonly associated with age. Tai chi is a low-impact form of exercise using stillness and smooth movement. It focuses on body positioning, balance, and relaxation. Practitioners improve their awareness of how the body moves and how posture, breathing, and relaxation work together to release tension in the body. Regular practice of tai chi increases flexibility, muscle strength, and bone mineral density. Tai chi promotes health and mobility using slow movements and intentional breathing. It can be practiced alone or with others and requires little practice space. Its movements are slow and smooth yet effective for health and self-protection. Exercises can be readily adapted to accommodate students who face challenges with movement, mobility, range of motion, or other difficulties. Instructor will discuss individual body needs with students and adjust accordingly. Spring Rates: $145/semester, or $8 per class.

Kendo Class - Kendo Class - June - Summer 2026 - Seonghoon Kim
Kendo is traditional Japanese martial arts that arose from the samurai, or warrior in feudal Japan, fighting with bamboo 'swords'. Kendo players wear protective gear like armor over. Kendo differs from many other sports. Heir to the traditional spirit of martial arts, kendo is not solely about winning but also respects good manners and nurtures a strong spirit. $50/month. The first beginner session (2 months) at our dojo covers the basics of etiquette, how to hold Shinai, basic hitting, and steps. Starting from three months, beginners will wear kendo uniforms and practice basic hitting. From the fourth month, they will start Bogu practice and doing a Jigeiko.
