I had a truly transformative experience with a tai chi course for therapists, taught by Philip and Helen. The session were thoughtfully structured, blending gentle movements, breathwork, and mindfulness in a way that felt both calming and empowering. As someone who sought out tai chi for therapeutic reasons - stress relief, improved mobility and mental clarity, I noticed significant benefits even after just a few classes. Feedback May 2025
