From the reviews
I had to give up both yoga and golf after many years, because of back pain and injuries. I decided to give Tai Chi at Suarez Martial Arts a try, never imagining that Tai Chi could take their place.
Well rounded classes which teach a variety of skills from beginners to advanced. Each class helps work on improving dexterity as well as a multitude of other skills.
As a student of a couple of years I always get expert training with sifu Carlos!
I have been taking the Tai Chi and Kung Fu classes from Sifu Carlos for more than two years, and absolutely love it! He has the great martial arts histories, knowledges, and spirits! He offers peaceful environment and instruction in the Tai Chi class, and so many different skills in the kung fu class.
New to tai chi? Start at Kung Fu & Tai Chi Boca Raton
Kung Fu & Tai Chi Boca Raton 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 Kung Fu & Tai Chi Boca Raton
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.
