Tai Chi can be practiced sitting in a chair.
Move with Strength. Heal with Intention. Connect with Calm.
Hi, I’m Tara—and I teach Chen Tai Chi to support healing, balance, and wellbeing in our community. My journey into Tai Chi began long before I became a teacher—but it became truly life-changing after I broke my back falling off a six-foot ladder on
Friday the 13th, 2007.
Doctors helped stabilise me. But it was Tai Chi that helped me heal—restoring strength, easing pain, and teaching me how to move again with mindfulness and ease.
Now, I share this ancient art with others who want to:
✅ Rebuild physical strength and flexibility
✅ Reduce stress and anxiety
✅ Improve balance and coordination
✅ Manage chronic pain gently and naturally
✅ Feel more present, grounded, and connected
I teach the classical Chen Tai Chi 18 Form and standing meditation (Wu Ji), guiding beginners and experienced practitioners alike through movement that nourishes the body, mind, and spirit.

“Tai Chi is not about how much you do—it’s about how deeply you feel it. In stillness and motion, we meet ourselves and come home to our strength.”
