Fairview
The Taoist Tai Chi Society™ internal art of Tai Chi Chuan (taijiquan) has been taught in Fairview since 1994. Early in that year, the Grande Prairie branch offered a workshop and then, over a five month period, sent instructors to Fairview once a week to help establish the location. By the fall of 1995, Fairview had two instructors trained to teach beginners. Since then, two more members have been trained and are instructing. In 2003, one of our beginner level instructors started to teach at the continuing level.
Over the years, many people have received instruction in Fairview and many have continued to attend the classes for improvement in health, balance, concentration and flexibility. New students are introduced to this gentle and effective exercise through beginner classes. It only takes four months to receive instruction in the 108 moves of the set, but Fairview’s students will tell you, there is still a lot to learn about Taoist Tai Chi™ internal arts and methods.
