Trying to research local Tai Chi classes and so far I've found one that would rather teach Alexander Technique instead, one that would prefer we all did Kung Fu, two that would rather go for QiGong and one who's actually more into Hermetic Meditation.
As far as I can tell, no-one local actually teaches Tai Chi as their main thing.
I get that it's a continuum of practices and techniques with all kinds of convoluted history and lineage and all that but sheesh.
