Loura Coons is a Tai Chi instructor with over 5 years experience teaching private and small group tai chi classes. She began teaching when a few students from her Sifu’s school could no longer attend regular classes. With her Sifu’s blessing she began teaching to continue their training. Then during the pandemic she brought her teaching outside and enjoyed passing along the health benefits of tai chi to those who couldn’t attend indoor exercise classes.
