Bring the entire family out to learn tai chi on the grounds of the Historical Society of Washington, D.C. The ancient art of tai chi is a style of kung fu that emphasizes internal energy. The movements are slow and easy and able to be performed by anyone regardless of physical condition or age. Free lessons are provided by the Wong People Kung Fu Association, which is directed by Raymond Wong and has been in Washington D.C. since 1985. This is one of the few groups left in the world that is preserving the noncommercial form of kung fu and tai chi. Wear loose clothing and comfortable shoes. Class will be held outside, weather permitting; otherwise, it will be held inside HSW. No RSVP required. (Suitable for all ages) FREE
