  1. I haven't posted here in a long time, but anyway: I offer regular classes in Tai Chi Chuan and in Qigong in Neukölln and Alt-Treptow, with both German and English spoken. The classes are relaxed, fun, friendly and also quite intensive, both in the solo exercises and (in the Tai Chi classes) the hands-on partner exercises. The Tai Chi I teach is based softness and relaxation but also activitates all muscles, especially the legs and core, and at the same time is viable for self-defence if you are interested in training with the appropriate intensity. The Qigong I teach is based closely on Tai Chi body mechanics and principles, but is easier to learn because the basic movements are much simpler and there is no partner work. Reasonable fees, friendly groups. For more details see Tai Chi Reuterkiez. The website is mostly in German but if you run the sections through an online translator such as Deepl or Google Translate you get a very serviceable English text.
