Tai Chi Chuan is known for its many health benefits for both body and mind and promotes an overall sense of well-being, vitality and inner calm.

Classes are taught in an open, friendly and supportive atmosphere with special attention given to learning the underlying principles of Tai Chi Chuan through a systematic approach to stance, posture and forms training while also giving insights into martial arts applications. This gives students a very effective and strong foundation for their Tai Chi practice and translates into a rich, rewarding and in-depth experience of the art after only a short period of time.

The integration of Tai Chi forms and Chi Kung (Qi Gong) exercises into the class schedule helps students appreciate and experience the meditative aspects of Tai Chi Chuan very early in their practice.

Our curriculum starts with learning the basic Tai Chi postures and moves and gradually progresses to more advanced hand and weapon forms. Each student is encouraged to learn at his or her own comfortable pace, fitness level or ability to further the benefits and enjoyment of this powerful and beautiful centuries-old martial art.

Andreas Asmus has until recently been instructing at a local Tai Chi school in Berkeley with great success. His experience in ballroom dancing and passion for Tai Chi give him a special capacity to teach the preciseness, purity and beauty of movement and at the same time to transfer the experience of flow and a feeling of connectedness of body and mind to his students.

Learning Tai Chi Chuan therefore not only becomes a physical exercise but also a deeply spiritual art form and experience that equally involves and stimulates the heart, mind and spirit.

Tai Chi Chuan Berkeley sees as its first and foremost mission to provide an open door to everyone to have the opportunity to experience, learn and enjoy the Art of Tai Chi Chuan with an open heart and mind in a dedicated, focused, respectful and peaceful class setting and learning environment.

Our curriculum follows the very pure, traditional & authentic way by which Tai Chi Chuan has been passed down by Tai Chi masters for centuries. We strive for quality instruction that motivates and inspires and that continuously sparks your love & enthusiasm for learning Tai Chi Chuan.
