Participate in the fourth annual Brookline Tai Chi Tai Chi–A–Thon!

How It Works

Supportive friends, family, and co-workers pledge money per hour of your practice time (download pledge sheet below). Same principle as a walk-a-thon, different cause. But our annual fundraising event is also an open house and community builder. It introduces tai chi to those who may be curious to find out what it feels like; all sessions are open to anyone, and free. And it introduces BTC students to each other, with veterans and newcomers practicing side by side. Please come!

Why Come

This year we’re exploring new ways to find common ground. • For newcomers, our instructor-led sessions will provide lots of feedback on practice principles; you don’t have to know particular forms in order to participate. • For long-time practitioners, we’re offering fresh perspectives on ideas you know well, and a chance to tell others what you love about what we do here.

Practice exercises will be simple to follow, potentially profound in impact, and accessible to all.
