Where to learn Tai Chi?

Jukashi

Hello all, first post time. I'm a 23-year-old fellow living about 10 or so minutes drive from Ashbourne, technically a 4th Kyu in Shotokan karate but I haven't been in training for a few years now. When I did train, however, my instructor would sometimes change things up by showing us a bit of Tai Chi, and I always found it appealing, so I'd like to give it a try.

Can anyone recommend anything within a reasonable distance?

if your into tai chi but want it a little more aggressive then try chen tai chi. very explosive, very good work out. the only chen master in ireland is master samsun and he teaches in the aughrim street parish center on prussia street,hanlons corner,manor st.area. its about 30 mins drive from ashbourne. look up chen tai chi on youtube. good luck.

Sam Sun is my teacher, and I always feel great after his classes. He deosn't waffle a lot like some teachers, but will answer any questions you may have.
And, he likes to keep the classes moving.

Here's a link to his web-site http://www.taichikongfu.net/shownews.asp?id=31

There's always room for new comers, and every few weeks he does beginner courses.

Sam Lee from China teaches an excellent class in Leixlip, Co Kildare. It will take you 30 mins on the M50. Of intrerest to you might be the other instructor Jacqui O'Shea who is also a 4th dan in shotokan karate. Very good class, check out their website www.yogaireland.net.

Hi, just wondering if Sam Sun is still teaching, and if so, would you have contact info? I attended 2 classes 3 years ago but coiuldn't continue then due my schedule.
Cheers!

Sam Sun was teaching early last year after his return from China if that helps?
