Is Tai Chi Gung really effective?
Well, it currently is for thousands of people in our community, spread across more than 30 countries worldwide. Tai Chi Gung has been passed down through an unbroken lineage for over 3,000 years, so it has stood the test of time. Ultimately, though, what matters most is that it works for you and fits well into your life!

Marie Annick: Messenger of Tai’ Chi Gung
"I travel on the mysterious path of life, in perpetual quest for wisdom, truth and divine harmony. The way of Tai’ Chi Gung, this ancient and sacred art, has gently brought me back to pure simplicity and profound unity with benevolent nature.
Each slow, graceful movement of this delicate practice connects me to vital energy, this invisible force that dances within me and around me, breathing life into every being. My dearest wish is to weave this thread of eternal wisdom with all those who yearn for serene balance and soothing peace.
Through these teachings, I dream of guiding you towards a luminous understanding of your inner being and cultivating together an unshakeable inner peace. Together, let us delve into the silent depths of the moment, awaken to the magic of the present, and embrace the power of non-action.
Join me on this gentle, introspective adventure, whether you are a curious explorer or an advanced seeker of the soul.

Lao Tzu created a series of warm-ups and four basic standing exercises that form the core of each class. These are simple movement and breathing exercises that help students directly experience the vital energy of nature. Nearly 90% of students feel it from their very first class.
Whether you've practiced for 6 minutes, 6 months, or 6 years, you'll be doing the simple movements you learned in your very first class. These movements serve as a foundation, and each student builds upon them in their own way. Because we don't hold back on exercises and they are consistent, new students can join an in-person class at any time. You'll feel right at home.
What clothes should I wear?
Comfortable street clothes are suitable. The class takes place standing up, and the exercises are so gentle that you won't sweat.
Bimonthly with Master Lama Rasaji
Every two months, we have the joy of participating in international webinars with Master Lama Rasaji, unique moments of wisdom, guidance and shared practice.
The meetings are conducted in English, with translation into French, so that everyone can fully receive the teaching and vibration of Tai’ Chi Gung.

Testimonials
Lise
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I discovered Tai’ Chi Gung only a few months ago, and it was a real revelation. For a long time, I had been searching for a practice, trying different disciplines, but nothing really suited me.
When I started practicing Tai’ Chi Gung, I immediately felt it was exactly what I needed. I had finally found what was missing from my life. Thanks to its gentle and slow movements, Tai’ Chi Gung instills in me an inner peace and serenity that counterbalances the hustle and bustle of life. It also allows me to reconnect with myself and much more in all aspects of my life.
Endless gratitude to my teacher
Marie-Annick, to Master Lama Rasaji and to the entire Circle of Chi community "

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I discovered Tai’ Chi Gung with Marie Annick. She offers us a calming and conducive environment for practicing this ancestral discipline.
Subtle changes are already visible: energy seems to flow differently, my body is more balanced, emotions pass through me in a gentler way, my inner calm returns more quickly.
Through anecdotes, she shares her daily knowledge and experience with us, all with great kindness. I highly recommend this teaching.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Tai’ Chi Gung classes are probably for me a path to healing, a profound encounter between body and mind.
It was made possible thanks to Marie Annick's patience and teaching skills. Her kind and attentive presence undoubtedly helped me avoid back surgery, guiding me step by step towards a quiet strength, the kind that lies in slowness and precision.
Each movement becomes a dialogue, a moment where I learn to listen to my body and release tension. Marie Annick teaches me that the art of Tai’ Chi Gung is not just an exercise.
It is a whisper of the soul and body, a slow unfolding of inner wings. With her, each session is a moving meditation, a journey toward balance where healing arises from patience, listening, and a newfound self-confidence. We discover that calm is a strength, and that gentleness is a discipline.
Tai’ Chi Gung should be a philosophy of life: that of restored harmony, respect for one's own rhythm, and peace rooted in every gesture.
Then, the benefits will be revealed, subtle and profound: the body will become light, the mind will be grounded, and the heart will open.
