Tai-Chi-Chuan School

Welcome to the Tai-Chi-Chuan School, your destination for traditional Qigong and Tai Chi on Long Island. Located at 87 Tyler Avenue, Sound Beach, New York, our school has been a pillar of health and wellness since its establishment in 1975. Over the years, we have proudly taught thousands of students the ancient Chinese practices of Tai Chi and Qigong, emphasizing health, healing, and self-defense.

Our founder, Bob Klein, brings a wealth of experience and knowledge, having studied under Grandmaster William C. C. Chen and other esteemed teachers. With a background in zoology, Bob Klein incorporates his understanding of animal behavior into his teaching, enhancing the authenticity and depth of our programs. He is also a published author with three Tai Chi books and over 40 instructional DVDs to his name.

At the Tai-Chi-Chuan School, we offer a comprehensive curriculum that includes Yang and Chen style forms, animal and weapons forms, traditional push hands, sparring, and the philosophy underpinning this transformative practice. We cater to all levels of students, providing personalized one-on-one classes at our Long Island location and online. Additionally, we conduct group classes online and at various community venues, such as libraries, senior living communities, and nursing homes, where we offer a seated system of Tai Chi and Qigong.

Tai Chi is renowned for its health benefits, including increased flexibility, improved breathing, better balance and coordination, a strengthened immune system, normalized blood pressure, and relief from aches and pains. Our program encompasses the full range of Tai Chi training, from health exercises to self-defense techniques.

Whether you are a beginner or an experienced practitioner, we welcome you to join our community and explore the enriching world of Tai Chi.
