Welcome to the Agar-Hutton Tai Chi Academy, where we blend ancient wisdom with modern wellness
"We have been training for about a year, it has improved our mobility, balance and mental stimulation a great deal. All the exercises can be done in a small space which is so helpful in our small rooms at home.
Robert explains the movements clearly and we're not expected to do more than we are physically able to do. What is more, the sessions are fun, and we always look forward to the next class."
As a complete beginner to tai chi, I have to express my appreciation and thanks to both Robert and Lee for making me feel so welcome.
Mentally and physically, I have felt the benefits of the gentle exercises: I have more flexibility in my muscles and joints and my breathing/composure is more relaxed. Whether this is down to tai chi per se or the result of mind-set and participation, I couldn’t say but I know I feel different!
After the onset of a little arthritis in my right hand, I couldn’t make a fist at all. Now I can. A week’s reading of my blood pressure, as part of a medical review, resulted in some of the best figures I’ve known. Furthermore, I am able to do many exercises that I once did in my early twenties.
So, has tai chi helped? I would argue yes. Has it changed my mind- set / approach to mental and physical change? Yes again.
Am I glad I found Robert and the tai chi classes? Without a doubt.

"As a novice Tai Chi practitioner I have found Robert's sessions enjoyable and highly informative. His expertise is evident, and his down to earth style puts everyone at their ease. He skillfully blends his extensive knowledge with large doses of humour making the sessions perfect for both beginners and more advanced practitioners. Highly recommended."
