Barrie Tai Chi & Qigong

Barrie Tai Chi is an established internal martial arts club located in Barrie Ontario. We are actively recruiting new members that have an interest in training in Tai Chi, Qigong, Tai Chi Chuan or Zhan Zhuang.

Whether you are new to Tai Chi and Qigong or a senior student that wishes to perhaps experience the arts from a new perspective, we are sure that our relaxed and informative classes will enhance your practice.

Tai Chi and Qigong are rapidly gaining acceptance in western society as a proactive approach to health and longevity. The benefits include (but are not limited to) physical exercise, stress management, balancing the internal energy systems, expansion of lung capacity which promotes oxygenation of the blood, detoxification, emotional balance, mental acuity, strengthening the lower body, enhanced physical balance, increased self awareness and spiritual progress.

The training at Barrie Tai Chi and Qigong encompasses the fundamentals, philosophy and energetic aspects of Tai Chi and Qigong. We strive to educate the students to the reality that everything we participate with is in fact energy and then we introduce concepts and training to help facilitate that energetic relationship. Eventually the student will learn to engage the world from an energetic perspective rather than a physical one and will thus see and participate in the world from an enhanced point of view.

Tai Chi (Taiji) practice enhances – lung capacity and the immune system leading to better health, physical balance, leg strength, body awareness, relaxation, clarity of mind, memory and general outlook on life

Qigong practice promotes the marriage of progressive relaxation, meditation, visualization, concentration, breath; self massage, correct movement and focused intent.

Tai Chi Chuan (Taijiquan) practice enhances – understanding and participation in all interpersonal situations, self-confidence, physical abilities and relationship skills. 

Zhan Zhuang practice builds - physical strength, patience, balance, relaxation, self-awareness and internal power.

Our goal is to provide quality instruction in the arts of Tai Chi, Qigong, Tai Chi Chuan and Zhan Zhuang to help the student along their path of self discovery.
