where can i find a place to learn tai chi? a place in south africa, eastern cape, is it a good self defense martial arts?

Two very different types of Tai Chi: Tai Chi Chuan and Tai Chi Chih. I'd recommend Tai Chi Chih for the early experience of feeling the chi, easier to learn and much easier to teach. I introduce it at http://www.real-dream-catchers.com/Kokopelli_Project/tai_chi_for_the_heart.htm

Hi Nstika. I'm in Bloemfontein and what I did was purchased a book with CD instructions on Tai Chi. Play the CD several times to get the feeling of the moves. It will be better if you can join a group but they are not that easy to find, check the library and Mall notice boards etc. not 4 defence.

Thanks Allen, will check it out. Take care

thanks allen
