Tutor: Linda Dunleavy. Linda is also a member of Cottingham u3a and is a qualified T'ai Chi instructor.

Linda teaches "Shibashi" which is a perfect prelude to learning T'ai Chi, or as a warm up for T'ai Chi. Shibashi focuses on the smaller muscles, tendons and ligaments in order to promote the strong elastic forces of T'ai Chi. Its exercises develop better posture, body alignment and awareness, builds strength, tone and flexibility and keeps us active.

Excercises can be done sitting down or standing up.
