A Yang-style tai chi workshop will take place from 10 a.m. to noon, August 27, at Studio One Naples. Coco Waldenmayer, who trained in Northern Shaolin Kung Fu with the late Master Choi of Los Angeles, will lead this workshop, the first in a monthly series.

Research has shown that tai chi can help increase mobility, flexibility, balance, coordination and strength; reduce stress and enhance memory. Attendees will learn about the Yang style’s history and philosophy, fundamentals, physical and mental benefits and how the studio instructs in a traditional practitioner-centric way so that individuals can develop a lifelong practice suited to them.

Enrollment for tai chi classes beginning in September starts this month. Students can choose from three-, six- or 12-month durations, or purchase packages of 10 or 20 classes.

Cost: $10 with preregistration or $15 at the door. Location: 4184 Tamiami Tr. N. For more information or to register, call 239-214-3464, ext. 4, email [email protected] or visit StudioOneNaples.com.
