For the body, mind and soul
Control, discipline, flexibility, balance and self-defence: learning a martial art teaches you all of these things in body, mind and soul.
The Bath branch of Wutan – a traditional school of Chinese martial arts – teaches different martial arts such as Tai Chi (short for T'ai Chi Ch'uan) and Kung Fu, along with Qigong (or Chi Kung) and some other forms that are suitable for everyone.
At Wutan Bath, students of all levels are always welcome to any class, but there are some classes specifically tailored to beginners. Contact the instructors for more information about when new beginner classes will start.
