School Programmes
Taiji x Theatre Immersion
Taiji is not just for old people! Students are surprised seeing our young and energetic team passionately sharing more about the principles and philosophy of this rich cultural martial art. Using engaging theatre games and insightful knowledge, we host programmes to expose students to Taiji and chinese culture.
Fun and Enriching
Our goal is impart the art of Taiji to the next generation. We want to pay attention especially to “太极” - which can be translated as the “Great Extremes” - as a philosophy of Yin and Yang, of balance and of self-cultivation.
