From the reviews
Joining Silver Dragon Tai Chi has proven to be an enriching experience. Over the past two years, I have had the honor of learning from SiFu Mark, who skillfully explains each movement, making it accessible for all skill levels.
I am currently enrolled the silver dragon Taichung class run by mark west. The class is excellent. Mark is superb in knowledge and teaching skills. I am 80 years old, mark is very patient with my slow learning speed. I love this class and will continue as it greatly helps me in my balance and posture.
Anyone of any age or physical ability can and will benefit from practicing Tai Chi and Qi gong! Learning these ancient techniques from Sifu Mark has been absolutely exhilarating for me. The students are without exception great to learn with.
I’ve been working with SiFu Mark for over 3 years now and have enjoyed the journey. We’ve been through Alton that time. I had a small stroke last summer and was encouraged to continue with my Taiji practice by physical therapy to assist in my recovery. I feel it has helped greatly.
New to tai chi? Start at Silver Dragon Tai Chi Colorado
Silver Dragon Tai Chi Colorado 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 Silver Dragon Tai Chi Colorado
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.
