Edmonton
On this page, you will find information about Edmonton's classes, locations, Taoist shrine, branch history, and upcoming events. Visit the Class Schedules page for details about the days and times of our classes.
Several times a year, we invite the public to watch demonstrations of the Taoist Tai Chi™ internal art of Tai Chi Chuan (taijiquan), ask questions and participate in a free class. Check the events on the left side of this page for the date and times of our next Open House. The list of local events also includes our weekend workshops (both regional and national level), one day intensives, and a variety of social and temple events. We also teach and hold events in nearby Sherwood Park and St. Albert.
