Shibashi Tai Chi
Shibashi Tai Chi is a set of Qigong exercises based on the philosophy of Tai Chi. It places emphasis on synchronizing 18 movements with proper breathing techniques. This Qigong is very effective and easy to learn. The gentle movements doubled by the rhythmic breathing are suitable for people of all ages as it does not put too much stress on muscles and joints if done correctly and can be practiced sitting or standing.
Improves physical movement, balance and co-ordination
Calms and releases stress from the nerves and mind
Develops ‘qi’ energy
Main benefits of Tai Chi
This gentle, beautiful and flowing Qigong exercise routine is both a joy to do and deeply relaxing. Shibashi Tai Chi is designed to improve the general health and well being of the practitioner.
The gentle rocking motions and stretching movements improve circulation and digestion. The chest exercises and controlled breathing are good for lung conditions and asthma.
And the overall effect of the exercise is to reduce mental stress and physical tension carried in the muscles of the body.
One of the reasons it is practised slowly is that it enables you to consciously access how your mind and body feels.

I have been going to Jane’s Tai Chi classes for some time now and I am really feeling the benefits. Jane makes everyone feel comfortable and has a loyal following. She teaches without apparent effort and there is a very comfortable atmosphere in her classes. She is developing all her group to grow in the awareness of the special qualities that Tai Chi brings to the individual. I have never left a class without something new to think about or new area to explore.
I've been going to Jane's Tai Chi classes at the Quaker Meeting House for over 18 months now and I've found the lessons to be both fun, informative as well as being good exercise. Jane is a very good teacher and she always makes each lesson interesting and the classes always seem to be over too quickly. Should anyone wish to take up Tai Chi, they'd be hard pressed to find a better teacher than Jane. In all of her classes you'll find a warm welcome and you'll enjoy yourself as well.
I have attended weekly Tai Chi classes with Jane since 2013. This has been one of the most beneficial experiences I have been lucky enough to undertake. Jane is a very patient, understanding and knowledgeable teacher, not adverse to sharing her Bowen technique for those odd niggles we may have brought to class! Tai Chi has helped me through some difficult times and I am sure I have recovered from ailments more quickly thanks to its cumulative effect. Jane obviously cares about her work and the people who join her classes... I can emphatically recommend Jane Snell.
