Description

The Japanese Friendship Garden of Phoenix is the best place to enjoy an outdoor Tai-chi class surrounded by our Koi pond, waterfall, woodlands and all the other elements.

Awareness of this amazing natural environment has become a central part of Tai Chi, which is a traditional form of Chinese defensive martial arts. However, modern scientific studies have proven that people also gain health benefits by practicing Tai Chi and the three essential components of Balance, Strength, and Brain Power. Anyone can learn Tai Chi – at any age and at all levels of fitness. Come join us in this beautiful practice, and let’s celebrate your health! The class fee also includes admission to the garden for the day. Tai-chi in the Garden.
