Self Defence
Tai Chi
Tai Chi (sometimes spelt Taiji) is a Chinese Martial and Health Art which was originally developed several hundred years ago as an effective form of self protection. However as the years passed it was noticed that the natural and gentle movements that were taught to Tai Chi students had many health benefits. Thus the emphasis of the art in modern times is often only on this aspect, however to gain the full benefits of Tai Chi you need to learn the full art. We teach the full art incorporating the martial aspects as well as the health ones.
However, we do realise that not everybody wants or is capable of learning the full art so our sessions and curriculum are designed to allow people to learn just the health aspects if they want or both the health and martial aspects if they are able.
Group sessions run at The Pemberton Centre, Rushden, and the Village Hall at Chelveston.
Private sessions are also available:
Tai Chi for Health: 45 minute session - fee £24.
Tai Chi Martial Art: 90 minute session - fee £45.
Note: a private session can be for 1, 2, 3 or 4 people - fee is per session, not per person.

Man or woman, young or old, you can learn how to survive a physical assault.
The hardest thing to learn is that YOU can defend yourself. You don't need to be tough or big or vicious. Indeed self defence can be most effective when your potential attacker is overconfident because you do not look like a cross between 'Rambo', 'Godzilla' and the 'Zombie biker from hell'.
You can learn how to protect yourself and those you care for. It's not 'easy' as it does require perseverance and practice but it is something that you can do, no matter what your background or circumstances.
Private sessions are available:
90 minute session - fee £45
45 minute session (over 60s or people who are unable to train for 90 minutes due to physical issues) - fee £24
Note: A private session can be for 1, 2, 3 or 4 people - fee is per session, not per person.
