I've greatly enjoyed the Taiji beginning class at CUTQ. One of the things that is great about it is that it's done slowly enough, with lots of repetition, so that it becomes possible to learn it. Both Scott (the main teacher) and Chris (who also helps with the teaching) are patient and encouraging, which really helps. The other students range in skill, with some attending the beginning class multiple times. Overall, an excellent way to learn Taiji.

Having practiced in several meditation traditions for almost 20 years, I can say it is rare to find a teacher as clear and deep as Scott. His enthusiasm for the practice is evident and contagious.

If you are interested in starting a Taiji practice, consider taking classes with CUTQ. You will develop flexibility and balance, meet great people, and go home refreshed and relaxed. I highly recommend the beginning class.
