Tai Chi Nanaimo.. Tai Chi for Life! We practice the 108 move health-oriented tai chi set through our not-for-profit, non-religious, volunteer-run organization. Tai chi is a complete whole-body exercise that can be practiced anywhere, anytime, at any age, with no need for special gear or clothing. Our accredited volunteer instructors teach Beginners and Continuing classes. Beginner courses vary in length, but generally run for about four months, after which participantscan join an on-going class.
