Taiji beginner classes
Taiji beginner course by infinite.taiji starts Thursday 19th January 2023 at Steiner House, 104 Michael Ave in Ellerslie with twice-a-week trainings:
6–7.15 pm Monday and Thursday, or Wednesday mornings for $100/month.
‘Plunge the fire of the mind into the water of the body’ to create a balance in body, emotions and mind.
Each class we begin by closing down the 'chattering' everyday mind in order to awaken the deeper mind by listening into the deep body sensations using the 5 inner senses.
We will train the 5 Loosening Exercises of Huang Xingxian, learn the 37-move Short Form of Cheng Manqing, Push Hands (partner exercises) in the tradition of Master Huang and finish with a guided meditation.
I have 30 years of taiji experience and was teaching in my teacher Patrick Kelly’s Taiji School in St Benedicts Street here in Auckland for a number of years.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
