About

Lishi Arts

This is the website for the North London branch of Lishi Arts, featuring class information for current and prospective members.

Lishi is a Chinese Daoist exercise system, involving tai chi, yoga, kung fu, dance, meditation and wu shu disciplines. It was first brought to the UK in the 1930’s, and is governed by the International Daoist (or ‘Taoist’) Society (or IDS).

Our North London Class

The North London class is taught by our instructor, Ron. Classes welcome new members at all times, and no previous experience or equipment is required. Initially, you can wear comfortable exercise clothing as you would at the gym - plimsolls are best, but trainers are also suitable for your first sessions.

Charity Funding

The charity London Lishi Arts (registered charity number: 1114627) has enabled this website, along with free or low cost classes for 16-25 year olds across London as part of a health drive to promote Lishi recreational physical activity (also known as ‘Wehai Lishi Quanfa’, the Chinese name including its geographical origin) within the community.
