Wanna start Tai Chi?
Tai Chi is widely recognized for its profound physical and mental health benefits, which is why it is increasingly recommended by medical professionals. The slow, deliberate movements and focus on breathing and mindfulness are associated with a variety of positive outcomes. This gentle form of exercise can help maintain strength, flexibility, and balance, and could be the perfect activity for the rest of your life.
Tai Chi :
A transformational practice for integration of body (balance, flexibility, and coordination), mind (self-confidence and self-awareness) and spirit (centering, positivity, and peace).

Yuka Cass began studying Yang Style Tai Chi under Kevin Beane in 2006, while pregnant with her first daughter. She transitioned to teaching her own beginner courses in 2021. Additionally, Yuka practices at Portsmouth Aikido, where she holds a first-degree black belt.
In 1981, while on a month-long trek in the Himalayas, Kevin Beane encountered Tai Chi for the first time. Though already an experienced martial artist with a first-degree black belt in Karate, he was mesmerized by the practice’s depth, grace, and beauty. Upon returning to the U.S., Kevin studied locally before spending five years training in Boston with Dr. Yang Jwing-Ming. His greatest inspiration, however, was his late teacher and friend, Zhang Lu Ping. Studying privately with Zhang from 1990 to 1998, Kevin credits him with the invaluable gift of “learning how to learn.”
