Self-Care Arts is now welcoming students to join our Live Online Tai Chi and Qigong classes, designed to cultivate vitality, balance, and deep internal healing.

Whether you are new to the arts or an experienced practitioner, our classes provide structured guidance rooted in traditional training and modern wellness application.

In addition to his extensive lineage training, Sifu Martin Kelly has a background in Exercise Science, giving him a deeper anatomical and physiological understanding of movement and its effects on the body.

He is able to clearly explain which muscles, joints, connective tissues, and energy pathways are being activated, and how specific movements influence circulation, nervous system regulation, balance, and structural alignment. This scientific insight allows students to not only perform the movements — but to understand why they work.

Sifu Kelly teaches Tai Chi as a true whole-body practice, emphasizing:

  • Integrated, full-body movement

  • Correct structural alignment and posture

  • Coordinated breath and intention

  • Efficient weight transfer and joint protection

His method ensures that each posture is performed safely, effectively, and with maximum therapeutic benefit. Students learn how to move in a way that strengthens the body, protects the joints, improves balance, and supports long-term health.

This fusion of traditional internal arts training and modern exercise science creates a practice that is both authentic and intelligently structured for today’s students.
