Andrew Harris: Master Instructor of Tai Chi Chuan in Nottingham



Looking for authentic Tai Chi in Nottingham? With over 30 years of dedicated practice, Andrew Harris is one of the UK’s leading instructors in Wudang Style Tai Chi Chuan. A direct "inside the door" student of the late, legendary Master Dan Docherty, Andrew has spent decades refining the Practical Tai Chi Chuan system—a prestigious lineage stretching back to Grandmaster Cheng Tin-hung.

Andrew doesn’t just teach the art; he has proven its efficacy at the highest levels. As a multi-gold medalist at both the British and European Open Championships, his martial arts training is rooted in deep technical precision and real-world application.

Since founding the Cloud Dragon School of Tai Chi Chuan in 1999, Andrew has fostered a thriving community in Nottingham, guiding students from ages 12 to 70+. Whether you are searching for Tai Chi for beginners, traditional self-defence, or the development of internal strength (Nei Kung), Andrew’s classes offer a direct link to authentic tradition and holistic health.

From meditative forms to competitive excellence, the Cloud Dragon School provides the most comprehensive Tai Chi classes in the Nottingham area.

"My goal is to pass on the legacy of my teachers with the same passion and integrity they showed me, helping every student in Nottingham find their own path to health, balance, and strength."
