Follow-along warm-up session

Follow along as I lead you through the whole warm-up session, calling out the breathing and the moves, so that you can follow along and learn the moves gradually.

I’ve taken class with Chris for many years. He works at your level. I’ve seen him teach people with bad injuries just as well as people with a lifetime of martial arts knowledge.

He’s very kind and this class will transform your life. I know that I would not be in such a good place in my day to day life if it wasn’t for this class. You come thinking you’ll learn some cool meditation techniques but you learn SO much more!

I studied with Sifu Chris for a period of several years a while back. He was a superb teacher, very knowledgeable, easy going, and able to transmit information very easily. I also like that his approach is very grounded and practical.

Say "YES" to Tai Chi with Chris Nelson! Not only is he steeped in knowledge of the physical, mental, spiritual, and metaphysical aspects of this wonderful martial art, he is such a skillful, graceful practitioner and an UTTERLY AMAZING TEACHER, with patience, intuition, and an abundance of enthusiasm and good humor.

Teacher

Chris is a thoughtful, knowledgeable teacher. He brings the information down to the level that each of us needed to comprehend the moves and the theory behind the moves. I learned so much from him.

Hi, I am Christopher Nelson

Tai Chi Teacher

I fell in love with Tai Chi when I was 15 years old. It has sustained me for all these years. No matter what martial art I dabbled in, I always returned to Tai Chi because it taught me not just to have a body, but to BE a body, moving through space and time. Tai Chi transforms the body into an instrument of peace, of joy, of spiritual transcendense, of comfort, of strength.

My greatest pleasure is in sharing my love for this wonderful art and seeing my students discover a whole new way of being.
