Course Descriptions
101: Movement Skills
Our first course focuses on learning the basic movement skills at the heart of our method. In this course, you will master a core repertoire of Tai Chi movements. You'll learn how movements are connected to each other in Tai Chi with specific transitions to create combinations. Additional transitions then connect those combinations to form a complete routine.
Your first Flow routine is what Flow Conductors use to guide people into Flow. By the time you finish this course, you will be able to model this routine in a way that makes it easy for others to follow you.
