Chinese Internal Arts for Health & Wellbeing
Welcome to the Angus Tai Chi Academy
Our Aims
Under the general guidance of the International Association of Tai Chi and Lok Hup Academies, the aims of the group are:
Facilitate and encourage people to share in the Tai Chi and related arts as taught by Master Moy Lin-Shin
Enable people aged 18 and over from all walks of life to enjoy the benefits of Tai Chi
Provide instruction to allow people to participate in Tai Chi on a regular basis and train volunteer instructors to teach Tai Chi and related arts
Encourage involvement in Tai Chi in local communities
Develop an understanding of the benefits of this form of gentle exercise, as it promotes mental and physical well-being
The Angus Tai Chi Academy teaches 108-move Tai Chi. Our instructors pay particular attention to full extension in all of the movements, a style developed by Master Moy Lin-Shin (1931-1998).
He modified the traditional Yang Style 108-move Tai Chi set to maximize the health benefits for faster health improvement, as he realized that in a modern society, an exercise that was good for health was more important than a martial art for fighting.
The Angus Tai Chi Academy is a proud member of the International Association of TaiChi & Lok Hup Academies.

News & Events
COVID-19 Update - 12th November 2020
Well, it was nice to get back to our (albeit somewhat modified) classes for a while but, as Angus unfortunately moves to Tier 3 on Friday 13th November, the classes in Brechin, Farnell & Montrose are now no longer permitted. The classes there will be discontinued until we move back to a lower tier, or guidelines change. We just have to wait to see what will be allowed and when.
If/when Angus returns to Tier 2 your instructor will be in touch with you about any arrangements for the restarting of your class. Please do not turn up “on spec” to a different class, even if your normal class has not restarted.
Contact your usual instructor if you have any
queries.
As always, we hope that you and your families all keep safe and we look forward to meeting up again.
Remember our closed Facebook group is there helping keep us connected.
