Certified instruction — reviews and the studio's own info point to a recognized tai chi program or lineage (think Tai Chi for Health / Dr. Paul Lam, the Taoist Tai Chi Society, or a named family-style teacher). If credentials matter to you, ask which program the instructor is certified in and which style they teach.

From the reviews

I have been attending Body & Body classes 2-3 days per week for the past 4 months. I can sincerely say that these classes, and the specific teachings of Master ChunMu, have made an immediate and powerful impact in my mental and physical well-being.

★★★★★ — Kelly, Aug 2024

I’ve been attending classes at Body & Brain Decatur for 2-3 months now and already I’m experiencing big shifts in my body/mind connection, my body’s healing ability, and my subtle energies. I initially thought I was *just* joining a tai chi class and was looking for a new way to move my body.

★★★★★ — Shayne, Aug 2024

I have attended Body and Brain Yoga Tai Chi for a little over a month. I have really enjoyed my experience. As a senior I was looking for a more holistic approach to health and well-being and Body and Brain has given me that.

★★★★★ — Ricky, Jul 2025

Body & Brain Yogo Tai Chi was recommended to me by a co-worker, and I'm so glad she shared it with me! I've been attending classes and workshops for over 8 months now, and I can truly see and feel the impact it has had on my life!

New to tai chi? Start at Body & Brain Yoga Tai Chi

Body & Brain Yoga Tai Chi comes up as a beginner-friendly studio, going by its listing and students' reviews. If you've never tried tai chi, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first session. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — the movements are slow and gentle, you set your own pace, and many can be done seated if standing is hard. Second, there's nothing to buy and nothing to keep up with — wear comfortable clothes and flat, flexible shoes, and simply follow along. Third, all ages and abilities really are welcome — ask whether there's a dedicated beginners or all-levels class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most studios are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.

Your first tai chi class at Body & Brain Yoga Tai Chi

Nervous about walking into a tai chi class for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good instructors expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a gentle warm-up, then learning a few slow movements of the form, step by step — no pressure to get it perfect, and you can rest or sit whenever you need to. What to wear: loose, comfortable clothing you can move in, and flat, flexible shoes (some studios practice in socks or bare feet). What to bring: water, and that's about it — there's no equipment to buy. Arrive a few minutes early to say hello to the instructor and mention it's your first class. It comes together faster than you'd think — most people feel far more at ease by their second or third visit.

Tai chi is gentle and low-impact, but it's still exercise, and the health notes here are general information, not medical advice. If you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them to the instructor before class, and check with your doctor before starting a new exercise program.
