About Tai Chi in the Park
Tai Chi in the Park brings the ancient practice of tai chi to the riverside parklands of New Farm, offering a calm, accessible way to start the weekend. Run as part of Tai Chi Queensland, the sessions take place outdoors beneath the trees near the river, drawing locals who want to move gently, breathe and reset away from screens and traffic.
The practice blends slow, flowing tai chi forms with qigong-style movement, with a focus on balance, flexibility and overall health. Because the emphasis is on mindful, low-impact movement rather than intensity, it welcomes all ages and fitness levels, including complete beginners and older adults interested in falls-prevention and mobility.
Tai Chi Queensland is led by an experienced senior instructor and runs classes across multiple Queensland regions, supported by online lessons and a large library of recorded sessions for practising at home. For New Farm locals, the weekend park class offers a peaceful, community-minded ritual in a beautiful outdoor setting close to the ferry terminal, making it easy to fold into a relaxed Brisbane weekend.
